 USES CRT;

 TYPE
    ScreenArray = ARRAY[1..25 * 80] OF WORD;

 VAR
   _Screen: ScreenPtr;
   fHandle: FILE;

     ELSE

     ASSIGN( fHandle, 'DUMP.SCR' );

 { First we save the screen to the file DUMP.SCR }
     REWRITE( fHandle, 1 );
     BLOCKWRITE( fHandle, _Screen^, SIZEOF( _Screen^ ) );
     CLOSE( fHandle );

 { Now a little pause as we catch our breath }
     CLRSCR;
     WRITELN( 'Press any key...' );
     WHILE READKEY = #0 DO;

 { And finally we restore the screen from the file DUMP.SCR }
     RESET( fHandle, 1 );
     BLOCKREAD( fHandle, _Screen^, SIZEOF( _Screen^ ) );
     CLOSE( fHandle );

 { Another pause to view our handiwork }
