To those of you using (or interested in using) Turbo Pascal V4.0 on the
Rainbow:

1)  I  have written and will distribute on request, a Rainbow-compatible
version of the CRT unit.  (using DOS calls, not fast video)  Not all of
the functions are implemented (e.g. windows) but the ones I have found most
important are (e.g keypressed, readkey, delay, wherex, wherey)

2)  I have also put together a Rainbow-compatible GRAPH unit, based on Ken
Nist's RBGRAPH package.  There are some details I haven't implemented (such
as viewports), but otherwise it is pretty complete.  It runs Borland's GRDEMO
program with no modifications.  I have asked Ken whether he objects to my
distributing it, but I'm waiting for an answer.               

	Let me know directly if you're interested.
