Newsgroups: comp.os.msdos.programmer Subject: MODE and MARK/RELEASE Summary: Does the resident portion of MODE act like a TSR? Sender: beers@cs.buffalo.edu Followup-To: beers@cs.buffalo.edu Distribution: comp.os.msdos.programmer Organization: SUNY Buffalo When I type: mode lpt1:=com1: to redirect the output to the parallel port, MSDOS responds with "Resident portion of MODE loaded." Is this a TSR and more importantly can it be handled with TSR management programs such as MARK/RELEASE. I am working on a station with many output devices. Once this resident MODE is loaded, I can't use the other printers, etc., without warm booting to get rid of MODE. Thanks in advance. I'll post a summary of replies. +----------------+----------------------+----------------------------------+ |Andrew Beers | |"If things that could have gone | |SUNY at Buffalo | beers@cs.buffalo.edu |wrong had not gone wrong, it would| |Buffalo, NY | |have been better if they had." | +----------------+----------------------+----------------------------------+ Newsgroups: comp.os.msdos.programmer Subject: MODE and MARK/RELEASE Summary: Expires: Sender: Followup-To: Distribution: comp.os.msdos.programmer Organization: SUNY Buffalo Keywords: Newsgroups: comp.os.msdos.programmer Subject: MODE and MARK/RELEASE Summary: Does the resident portion of MODE act like a TSR?
