I am a high-school student using the Gnu pascal compiler for programming homework, but I run into a regrettable hitch. My programs are now requiring the Borland Pascal crt library, and I don't know where to find either that library or a similar one for GNU. Is there any hope?
((The crt library is responsible for clearing the screen, creating sounds and colors on the screen, and random numbers, I think.))
Thanks for your help...

Hi, Ian!
I am a high-school student using the Gnu pascal compiler for programming homework, but I run into a regrettable hitch. My programs are now requiring the Borland Pascal crt library, and I don't know where to find either that library or a similar one for GNU.
Where's the problem? gpc-19990118 or newer comes with a portable CRT Unit. Just compile your program with `gpc --automake foo.pas -o foo'.
Is there any hope?
Yes.
Hope this helps,
Peter
