Category   :Pascal
Platform    :All
Product    :Turbo Pascal  4.0+

Description:
Q. Using 4.0+, can I still write to file 'Con' without changes?
A. The 'Con' file is not longer available in 4.0+. However, you
   can still write to the screen with a simple Write with no file
   variable. The file system has been completely redesigned to
   allow you to write your own text file device drivers. With
   these, you can implement a Pascal-like text-file interface to
   any device, such as serial ports, windowing systems, memory,
   etc.
