I don't do pascal myself any more, but I assume gpc, like gcc looks
at the file extention to choose what type of file it is. Obviously,
it doens't recognice ".txt" as a pascal file (I wouldnt' do that myself
eighter), and it chooses to assume it's a linker script.

Rename your file to eighter ".p", or ".pas" (I just don't know which,
but one must be the right one), and it should go OK.
