According to The African Chief:

[2] the SYSTEM unit is not totally portable - because of "itoa()" which I used in the "Str" procedure. itoa() converts an int to a CString. Is there a unix/Linux equivalent of this? I can use an IFDEF to link the unix/Linux equivalent if "__UNIX__" is defined.

You can convert an Integer to a String using Extended Pascal's `WriteStr' procedure:

WriteStr ( MyString, i : 7 );

This *is* portable.
