type AnsiChar = Char;
AnsiChar is an 8 bit char type. Currently, it is the same as
Char, but this might change in the future, once wide
chars (16 bit chars) will be introduced into GPC. Depending on the
platform, Char might be either AnsiChar or
WideChar then.
AnsiChar is a Borland Delphi extension.
program AnsiCharDemo;
var
A: AnsiChar; { There is nothing special with `AnsiChar'. }
B: Char;
begin
A := 'A';
A := B
end.
