From: Thomas S. Wanuga <WANUGA@MIT-XX> Is there any way to increase the size of the type ahead buffer on the IBMPC? Tom

I doubt it's possible to increase the size of the typeahead buffer on the IBM PC since this appears to have been implemented directly in hardware. 16 character max. Correct me if I'm wrong here. -- - Speaker speaker@umcp-cs speaker.umcp-cs@CSnet-Relay

#R:umcp-cs:-332800:whuxle:4200003:000:274 whuxle!jph Oct 25 22:57:00 1983 It is possible to change the type ahead buffer if you are willing to write a driver for the keyboard. With DOS 2.0 is is possible to have your own driver installed. You can copy most of it from the Tech Manual section on the ROM code and then change the size of the buffer.
