I just received mail from puff!plocher (John Plocher) about it.
The only thing that needs to be done is insert the lines
(*$P500 *)
(*$G500 *)
at the start of your Turbo program and Turbo Pascal will
allocate 500 byte put and get buffers and use the DOS device
drivers. I just tried it, and it works fine. There is nothing
special about 500; the size can be anything you want.
To John: Thanks!
To everyone else: DON'T bother sending me any more hints.
Being able to use the standard Pascal I/O is MUCH preferable
than having to write my own procedures with intr( $21, ).
