I know if I wasn't a Turbo Pascal programmer, I'd be pretty annoyed by 10 messages all on the single topic of how to clear the keyboard buffer in a particular implementation of Pascal under a particular operating system. More than half of the discussion here is Turbo-related, or so it seems to me. I suspect that the volume of TP discussion drives out any messages relating to other Pascal implementations and/or generic Pascal issues. No, I don't want to handle any formal group splitting proceedings...
