Using Lazarus as a Simple IDE

I would like to use Lazarus as a simple IDE with input/output from/to a "dos" box (like the old FreePascal IDE). My code compiles and runs with Lazarus/FreePascal but a blank window pops up instead of the desired dos box. What do I have to do to get the desired behavior from Lazarus? I am running Lazarus/FreePascal on a Vista-64 machine and have the latest versions of each installed.

In the IDE go to the menu Project -> Compiler Options

In the linking tab uncheck win32 gui application

That will bring the "dos" window when the program runs.

You can use WriteLn and ReadLn to interact with it in your software
