When I say that it is not portable I mean that "pause" will not work on all
systems. I found this out recently because I have used it too. I made some
changes to my computer (installed Windows 98SE, switched to the Cygwin
compiler etc.). Now system("pause") will not work for me.
Code portability is a good thing.
