Entirely normal. Status is an opague format in POSIX, and there are macros to pry them apart. In Free Pascal those become inline functions, but the result is the same. Consult man pages or freepascal documentation: https://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/baseunix/wexitstatus.html (note also the see also links which lists some of the other macros) _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
