Dear sir
I am sorry yo informed you that there is a problem while I am using the free pascal app. While I try to open the app, it just flashes, while I click a few more times it just keeps flashing. The app is quite important to me since I have to submit a programme using Pascal before next Wednesday. Despite that, I have to keep using this app as this is the theme of my computer studies in this term. Hope you can tell me how to fix the problem as soon as possible. A million thanks.

Sorry Agnes, but with not a single bit of information about your application, what OS you are running on, which compiler version you're using, etc, it is pretty much impossible to tell what you problem is.

You need to make a serious effort to provide some real information...

PS: and as the fpc-devel mailing list is for development question of the FreePascal compiler itself rather than some application compiled with it, you might be better off to post your question (with some real info) in the general fpc mailing list instead.

PPS: and don't expect someone else to do your homework for you...

I'm sorry, but you have not provided any information about what exactly is the problem. What do you 'open' - the command-line compiler? The text mode IDE? Some other binary included with FPC? Your own program compiled using FPC?

Moreover - which platform do you use (32-bit Windows, 64-bit Windows, Linux, etc.)? Which FPC version - the latest release 3.0.4?

You are probably creating and running a console program (as opposed to a GUI program) and double-click on the executable in Windows Explorer to run it.
This will open a console window, run the program and close the console window again.
Either:
- start cmd.exe and run the program from there, or
- as the last statement add readln; (just before the final end.), the th eprogram will not teerminate until you press enter (and only aftre that the console window will get closed.

There questions are better asked on the forum or on the fpc-pascal mailing list.
