<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello,</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>i am interesting, what do you think about
redirecting text streams not to windows console, but creating free pascal's own
gui console (for example implementing it under -WX switch)? I mean to do
something like graph unit is done now or unit wincrt in Virtual Pascal's
rtl. Windows console looks like some relict derived from dos. We have problems
with keybord drivers and text encoding in it (text prepared with
windows editor needs to be encoder to dos cp when outputing if you want to
see national characters properly). Different it's implementation
in win9x and win2000,xp systems makes these problems deeper. </FONT></DIV>
