#### BP compatibility: WinDos

The following listing contains the interface of the WinDos unit.

This is a portable implementation of most routines from BP's `WinDos` unit. A few routines that are Dos - or even IA32 real mode - specific, are only available if `__BP_UNPORTABLE_ROUTINES__` is defined, BP Incompatibilities.

The same functionality and much more is available in the Run Time System, Run Time System. The RTS routines usually have different names and/or easier and less limiting interfaces (e.g. `ReadDir` etc. vs. `FindFirst` etc.), and are often more efficient.

Therefore, using this unit is not recommended in newly written programs.

    { Mostly BP compatible portable WinDos unit

      This unit supports most, but not all, of the routines and
      declarations of BP's WinDos unit.

      Notes:

      - The procedures GetIntVec and SetIntVec are not supported since
        they make only sense for Dos real-mode programs (and GPC
        compiled programs do not run in real-mode, even on IA32 under
        Dos). The procedures Intr and MsDos are only supported under
        DJGPP if __BP_UNPORTABLE_ROUTINES__ is defined (with the
        -D__BP_UNPORTABLE_ROUTINES__ option). A few other routines are
        also only supported with this define, but on all platforms (but
        they are crude hacks, that's why they are not supported without
        this define).

      - The internal structure of file variables (TFileRec and TTextRec)
        is different in GPC. However, as far as TFDDs are concerned,
        there are other ways to achieve the same in GPC, see the GPC
        unit.
