Is the 'graph' unit a candidate for this (I remember it to be easily used from my Turbo Pascal days), or is there a better alternative?
If you're considering compatibility with other pascal compilers (TP/BP, FPC, Delphi) then the graph unit is the best alternative since it's also available on almost other pascal compilers though sometimes with a little different names but supply similar consts, functions, or procedures. Especially for teaching, graph unit is much less complex and easier to be understood though the performance is poor. Similar case to CRT unit.
But if you require an OOP, full featured, fast, cross platform, graphics library then there are many alternatives. You can use SDL4FPC, PTCPas, AggPas, etc. Study them and pick the most suitable to your requirements.
