- Your solution only works if he is using Turbo Pascal on an IBM-PC
- compatible system. If he is using Microsoft Pascal on a MS-DOS
- system, he must use a completely different method. On a *IX system
- he would use yet a third method. If he is using Standard Pascal,
- there doesn't appear to ba any way to do the job. Before this
- question can be answered, we will have to know more about the
- environment in which he wants to accomplish this goal.
