|    Write and Flush    |

   I am wondering whether or not a call to the Flush() procedure is   
   required after a call to Write(Output) (assuming Output is tied to the   
   screen)?   
      
   Example:   
      
   begin   
    Write(Output, 'Enter a string: ');   
    Flush(Output); { do we need this here? }   
    ReadLn(Input, s);   
   end.   
      
   In languages like C, this is the standard practice, but I can't find   
   any mention about needing to do this in Pascal. I'm assuming we do   
   because Output is still a text file...
