Am 25.04.97 konnte ich meine Finger einfach nicht von der Tastatur fernhalten... Folgendes kam dabei heraus: Hallo! I wondered how to implement the ability to change colours and write text to Standard output - but I think it's nearly impossible to do this within a Unit - the C - Textcolor doesn't work with the fprintf function that is used in the RTS... I wondered wether it would be legal (in sense of portability and compability...) to change the RTS : Textcolor works if you check wether the file passed to writeln is Stdout - when it is you use cprintf (or putch instead of fwrite). The question is - would it be legal to do such - you could put in a variable (smth like "GPC_ConsoleOutput") to switch in on/off ?
