Wiskunde & Informatica, VU, Amsterdam Lines: 21 I have asked this before and got some useful replies, but... I am looking for the source (C or ASM) of a version of Turbo C's spawnv() function (or possibly one of the other spawn..() funtions) that will allow a program to swap itself out of memory to disk (and possibly to EMS/XMS memory, but in any case to disk) before executing another program. It is essential that this function work in the COMPACT (or above) model! I have a version for the small and medium models, but I want to use it in my (personal) shell program that must be compiled in Turbo C in at least the compact model. I don't know enough low level memory stuff to write one myself :-( Please help me... Thanks in advance, Erik Tamboer, Amsterdam, The Netherlands -- ____________________ ________________________________________ / Erik Tamboer /\__ / I would have included a really funny /\__ / tamboer@cs.vu.nl /__\/ / joke here, but I already logged out. /__\/ /___________________/ /_______________________________________/
