Subject: MODE and MARK/RELEASE
Summary: Does the resident portion of MODE act like a TSR?

When I type:

mode lpt1:=com1:

to redirect the output to the parallel port, MSDOS responds with "Resident 
portion of MODE loaded."  Is this a TSR and more importantly can it be
handled with TSR management programs such as MARK/RELEASE.  I am working
on a station with many output devices.  Once this resident MODE is loaded, I
can't use the other printers, etc., without warm booting to get rid of MODE.

Thanks in advance.  I'll post a summary of replies.
