This must do something to a drive table which DOS keeps. Could some one explain how this is done, if possible with enough detail to allow me to write a program which will do this. The second question is, where can I find a full featured PC version of Curses, (A unix windowing package) which will support a Herc,CGA,EGA,VGA video system. I am currently using MSC 5.0/5.1, and would like source. BTW, I mean a PD version. Thanks in Advance! And Advise by e-mail to keep the net a little less bogged down.
