Answering msg from Paul Edwards to rowan_crowe, on Tuesday January 02 1996 at 22:16 PE>> For some reason the executable is still restricted to the PE>> small memory model - large causes an abend, on both Watcom PE>> and Borland. r>> Tiny, small, and compact memory models have all code in a 64k r>> segment: NEAR calls.

Best thing is to debug it and see if the bloody thing is doing what it's supposed to! BTW, all interrupts are far by definition, so there is only IRET. ---* Origin: Jelly-Bean software development, Melbourne AUST.
