The following Unit will enable you to Write Ansi sequences to a Text
File Without having to look them up yourself. It enables you to do this
using the (easier) Crt Unit style of commands, and provides the optimum
Ansi sequence to do the job.

Unit AnsiOut;
{1. Contains reduced set of Procedures from AnsiCrt Unit by I.Hinson.}
{2. Modified to provide output to a Text File.}
