This chapter describes the CRT unit for Free Pascal, both under DOS and LINUX. The unit was first written for DOS by Florian klämpfl.
The unit was ported to LINUX by Mark May, and enhanced by Michaël Van Canneyt
It works on the LINUX console, and in xterm and rxvt windows under
X-Windows. The functionality for both is the same, except that under LINUX
the use of an early implementation (versions 0.9.1 an earlier of the
compiler) the crt unit automatically cleared the screen at program startup.
This chapter is divided in two sections.
