program CrtDemo;
{ Example program that uses the Crt unit. Uses the following routines
from the Crt unit:

ClrScr
DelLine
GoToXY
InsLine
KeyPressed
ReadKey
TextBackground
TextColor
TextMode
WhereX
WhereY
Window
Write
WriteLn;

Also uses LastMode and WindMax variables from Crt unit.

1. Init routine:
- Save original video mode. On an EGA or VGA, use the 8x8 font
(43 lines on an EGA, 50 on VGA).
- Setup LastRow to preserve last line on screen for messages
(preserves last 2 lines in 40-column mode). Setup LastCol.
- Initialize the random number generator.
2. MakeWindow routine:
- Puts up random-sized, random-colored windows on screen.
3. Program body:
- Call Init
- Loop until Contrl-C is typed:
- Echo keystrokes (Turbo Pascal windows automatically wrap
and scroll).
- Support special keys:
<Ins> inserts a line at the cursor
<Del> deletes a line at the cursor
<Up>,
<Dn>,
<Right>,
<Left> position the cursor in the window
<Alt-R> generate random text until a key is pressed
<Alt-W> creates another random window
<ESC> exits the program
}
