Subject: Re: I/O Buffer

The current djgpp stuff (1.X) is limited to a 4K buffer for the
default I/O routines, regardless of the setbuf() setting.

In the upcoming 2.X, the buffer size is something that can be edited
through stubedit, and can be as large as 60K, and the I/O routines
will dynamically use the larger size.

For now, you can allocate your own buffer and do dos I/O to it through
the routines in <dpmi.h>.
