I've always (since Turbo Pascal and now with Free Pascal) used FILESIZE. It
works like a charm.
Even if you do it in assembly its done the same as its done in pascal.

I am wondering how to get the file size reported by the OS for a particular
file without opening it.  I tried to search for ‘Free Pascal File Size’
and variations but all I get are things like this:



https://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/system/filesize.html



which is not what I’m looking for.



I’ve been looking through the sysutils reference here:

https://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/sysutils/index-5.html



and I see disk size, but not file size…



Could someone please point me in the right direction?
