While trying to outmaneuver Dave Wakefield's twit filter, Dave Navarro
radioed:
DW> Is there any reason I shouldn't be able to shell to an
DW> executable program from a tsr programmed in Power Basic?
DN> PowerBASIC does not support the SHELL statement in a TSR. In order
DN> for SHELL to work without using undocumented DOS calls (which we do
DN> not do), we would have to track every executable which is ever run
Which calls? Some of the so called undocumented calls have been used so
often by such a great number of programs that it is highly unlikely
they'll ever be changed.
