 FA> Anyone knows if "stdprn" can be ported in some way ?

 PE> Just allow them to specify a filename, and they can enter PRN:.

And here i was thinking about ports, getting printer Ids, etc..:-)

 FA> ** Usage: fatread S|P|R drvletter. The switches can be reversed.
 PE> Usage is actually fatread /S drvletter.
yep, hope that's the only bug in it.

 PE> I would suggest a one-line usage, so that if you just type in
 PE> "fatread" by  itself, it goes and prints out the above usage line.
I didn't really want to grow it any further, it is now close to 600 lines 
if we believe the Bluewave splitter(counting empty lines).
I would normally have an argerr() and fatal() function in a program like 
that, i'll probably put it in the next one.

Yep, that part is not my bug( well, the only bug is that i've left it in), 
some systems don't fill that part of the struct properly. I'll probably 
leave it out next time, unless i come up with a better way.
It's not important anyway. Do a chkdsk if you want the size.;-)
