Horatio,
Welcome to the wonderful world of GPC!
The WinCrt unit in Turbo Pascal is just a set of functions that allow a turbo Pascal for Windows program to work in a console (DOS) type window under Windows. In Linux/GPC this is not necessary.

As I commented earlier, my only source for Pascal programming information for a beginner is a short course of Borland Turbo Pascal in windoze. I too have installed the Gnu Pascal Compiler in Linux, so I thought it would be possible to learn with the former to use latest.
Is there any document that explains (from scratch) the very basic differences between one and another? I hope you will excuse my lack of knowledge, but as I said these are my very first attempts to learning programming at all.
Now, from the very first basic program (I guess sort of C's "hello world"):
Program saludo; Uses WinCrt; Begin
{1} WriteLn ('Hola Mundo');
End.
I can only guess that the above syntax is correct both in windoze and Linux, except for the include file "WinCrt", but... how can I implement these for Unix/Linux?
TIA
