Description

TTextRec is the internal format of a Delphi variable of type text. You would never declare a variable of this type. However, you can use TTextRec to typecast a text file variable to access the internal data fields, such as the file name.

TextBuf is the type of the Buffer entry in the TTextRec record, and indicates the size of the buffer used.

Note: Do not use this unless you are familiar with writing text file device drivers for the Delphi language.
