Hi,

Free Pascal documentation has info about oldlinux unit which has interesting functions like fstat or fsstat. But can't find this unit in my FPC 2.7.1

Old linux was deprecated in December 2003. Since 2.6.0 it is no longer distributed by default. Moreover afaik it is linux/i386 only.

Unit baseunix provides nearly all functions in a portable manner.
