That's correct and reasonable. You are terminating your program after an EOL

Thanks John! That works a charm.

I have written a program who's behavior depends on the name by which it has
been invoked.
This is not uncommon, for instance sendmail invoked as mailq behaves in a
completely
different way.
Anyway, it all works as intended as long as I *copy* the executable to a
different name.

Thanks Jonas! That was the issue. So, I will just have to write my own readkey

I am using "crt" for the readkey function in one of my procedures. No ncurses,
no video. I
am also smart-linking, so the only function compiled in from crt SHOULD be

This brings up another nagging question I have had. If I set SpartLinking ON, my
executables are no smaller! Your reply here seems to suggest, that I do not
have any of my
units compiled with SmartLinking

Dumb me! Nope! And this was the problem. I just copied the new strutils.ppu
file into
/usr/lib/fpc/... NOT the strutils.o as well. So when the executable got
