OK, this part I understand, now, thanks for explanation. I'm not deep involved in compiler programming, but it is good to know that string[255] also works.
Now, I use the www.frameworkpascal.com for a DOS Program and ported it to Linux, so that the program can run with DOS and Linux. Let it run in DOS with fpc compiler seems more work, so I run the program in DOS with the frameworkcompiler. I did it now with additional compiler args -Sh- and it works, thanks.
