Neither. It is a fact. :-) (Actually, it is mapped directly to a call to MS-DOS int 21, ah=3f. If you want non-default behaviour, you can build it on top of this low-level call.) Note that it also doesn't set errno, nor return that value in a register. This limits its use to certain purposes. -- Don Corbitt, uunet!microsoft!donc, Windows Developer.
