ralf@B.GP.CS.CMU.EDU (Ralf Brown) (10/28/87)
About ten days ago, I posted a request for information on a number of DOS
function calls. Since that time, I have heard nothing (nada, nichts, ...).
Doesn't anyone at least have a DOS 3.3 Tech Ref?
I am looking for information about the following INT 21h function calls:
52h -- partially known
5Dh
60h -- error return values unknown
64h DOS 3.3
65h DOS 3.3 -- something about extended country info
66h DOS 3.3 -- something about code page tables
68h DOS 3.3 -- "commit file"
Reply ASAP to have the info included in the list. I will be posting it on
November 1.

Since Norton gets most of his info from the Tech Ref manuals, the other functions are undoubtedly undefine, and although they may actually "do something", they are not "official".

Actually, I believe that Norton's is only current to DOS 3.2. DOS 3.3 may use higher function codes (although I don't know what they are, and am not likely to find out, at $120/copy). -- Frank Mayhar UUCP: ..!{ihnp4,dj3b1}!killer!fmayhar ARPA: Frank-Mayhar%ladc@BCO-MULTICS.ARPA USmail: 680 Grand Ave #201 Long Beach, CA 90814 DeathStarNet: (213) 438-7899
