thanks - what are the features of ptcgraph vs graph? - I just want simple line graphs in win eg of data from a file, so was guessing that graph, from its name, was the 'best' option. J

Ptcgraph is new (fpc 2.4.4 will be the first stable release that has it) and was designed to be a better implementation of graph. Since it's still new, it probably needs more testing. It should have roughly the same feature set, but with better compatibility and consistency across all platforms, as well as better emulation of all the DOS modes from TP7 (CGA, MCGA, EGA, VGA, Hercules) as well as the VESA modes from the go32v2 graph unit. It doesn't have all the extra windowsisms exposed in the win32 graph unit, because they're not portable. It also still doesn't have an equivalent to the winmouse unit, but I'm planning to make a similar ptcmouse unit sometime soon :)
