I wrote a pascal program, and made an exe out of it.

When it is ran, instead of the text blinking like it is supposed to

But instead it is a grey background, IT LOOKS LIKE THIS HERE

It should look like THIS with blinking text.

How can i make the exe work right?

I wish I remembered pascal :eek:



ah... are you using a create box thingy or are you using spaces to move the text to the center... I think I did something like that

I am just spacing over, But the reason it is grey is because something about the windows dos mode.

It works fine as you see in picture #2, no grey and it blinks. But when you run the exe it doesnt blink and it is grey in that area
