Hi,
  I wonder if someone could point out a simple way to do integer to string
conversion in SUN Pascal. I generate a number that needs to be part of a 
filename in :
		rewrite(textfile,filename); 
where 'filename' is a string. Right now I can write the integer to a text
file and read it back as a string - but that's rather dumb!
I have been too used to nice Turbo Pascal features for such things...
