error in my message on argv(0)

In my previous article about how to get ARGV(0) in turbo pascal, I
erroneously stated in a few places that there were three bytes between
the end of the environment table (denoted by two nul characters) and
the start of the argv(0) (path and name of the file being executed).

There are actually only two bytes. A control-A and a null.  Sorry for
any confusion this may have caused.  The program still works, only the 
documentation is wrong.
