>>> Part 1 of 6...

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

Post release note: If getkey() doesn't work, change ax=0x10 to ax = 0x00;
0x10 is only supported with an enhanced K/board installed.

Before you know it, it'll play the theme to Twighlight Zone on error.:-)
Hm, that would be nicer in stereo actually..:)
If anyone tries this i'd love to hear success/fail reports..
I'm also not sure if it will compile on anything but Turbo/Borland 
compilers, but i think the only hangup will be the stream to STDPRN.
                              
/*
** Fatread.c  Ver1.1 ..by Frank Adam.
** Released to the Public Domain on the 18th October 1996.
** It now works on older compilers as well, but still requires
** DOS 3.31 or higher.
** Should now compile in small too, but as of now, i have not tested that.
** What it does ?
** Reads the fat and writes it formatted to screen/file/printer.
** Or just reads and dumps it into a file, for later restore.
** Usage: fatread S|P|R drvletter. The switches can be reversed.
** S = Save, P = Print. Save dumps the file to boot%c.dat and fat%c.dat
** %c = drive of course and either creates or appends or overwrites 
** fatbak.dat, which is the control file. 
** 'R' (restore) is not yet implemented.           
** If your parameter is P it'll give you 3 options to print to.
** if you select file then you will be prompted for a filename.
** There is no error checking for the printer, so it'd better be on.:-)
** Neither is there error checking for the drive, but the Dpb routine
** at the start should have a hernia anyway and the program will abort.
** Anyway, why am i explaining this to programmers ?? :-)
** While it has been tested thoroughly on my PC and 3 drives i can not
** guarantee that the code will work on all systems, thus i will not take
** any responsibility for loss of data or damage caused by the use and
** or misuse of this code.
** There, you have been warned, but it's quite safe. Trust me ! :-)
