Hi all... I was testing a program I wrote in FPC which directs the cursors (using crt), by redirecting the output to a file, but was surprised that the escape sequences weren't in the file.
Checking the source of the crt units, I found that when redirecting, the sequences are switched off. Is there motive for this behaviour? I just tested the same program under TP7, and, when using crt, redirection isn't possible at all - which is quite logical. Under linux, non-pascal programs do not distinguish between being redirected or not (also logical). I couldn't find a simple way to disable this (short of modifying the crt.pp source code and recompiling)... I need the output of the program to have the escape sequences, as I'd like to use them to feed a terminal emulator program. BTW - beautiful new website!
