Sorry, I don't follow.  I looked into the first several parts of the
Ralf Brown's Interrupt List (version 60), the ones that list BIOS and
DOS interrupts, and saw no more than half a dozen references to
Basic.  Not one of them said "reserved for Basic".  Half a dozen
hardly qualifies as ``nearly half''.

So please tell which functions of what interrupts did you have in
mind.
