I apologise if this is a stupid question, in the wrong place, or it was
answered yesterday. I don't read this newsgroup, so please email an
advice direct to me. I'll summarise, of course.
My question is: Is there a way to open more than 20 files in Turbo
C++ V1.0? The manuals don't tell me how (as far as I can tell :-)).
They just say that HANDLE_MAX (defined to be 20) is the maximum.
With 5 handles taken by standard io, etc, there's only 15 left :-(. I
can't believe that's all I can have. Yes, my config.sys does have a
line like FILES=50.
Any help appreciated. Any help _soon_ will be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark Moir.
