## 6.16 Files

- GPC supports files like in Borland Pascal, including untyped files, ``BlockRead'`, ``BlockWrite'` and ``Assign'`. Instead of ``Assign'`, you can also use the ``Bind'` mechanism of Extended Pascal.

  Besides the routines supproted by BP, there are many more routines available that deal with files, file names and similar things in a portable way. In contrast to Borland Pascal, you don't have to use any platform-specific units to do these kinds of things, though portable emulations of those units (e.g., of the ``Dos'` and ``WinDos'` units) are also available for compatibility.
