Why?

Is there a way to use CTR and recover redirection and pipelines?

Yes, there is.
But if you're using CRT on a modern system, you get very weird errors, because, well, it has to do with your processor being way too fast.

Anyway, there's a way to do that.

Crt chops off the original DOS file access, because just writing to the screen is MUCH faster.

assign(output, '');
rewrite(output);
assign(input,'');
reset(input);

You can also set it back:

AssignCrt(input);
reset(input);
AssignCrt(output);
rewrite(output);

Good luck
