	I have two programming questions :

	1 - Is there a way to do a real move of files?  I would like to
be able to move both files and directories, but Turboc's rename() function
and DOS function 86 (INT 33, _AH = 56H) do not support directory
moves (i.e. changing a directories name to a new path like moving
c:\tmp\norton to c:\norton).

	2 - How can a program find out what kind of processor and how
much memory is in the machine it is run on.  I would like to be able 
to write an "intelligent" program which could use extended memory 
if the correct processor and memory are availible.

	I would prefer responses to be in C (TurboC 2.0) but both
assembly (MASM 5.0) and pascal (Turbo Pascal 5.5) are fine.

Thanks in advance,
