Are those lines above supposed to be fopen and fclose? Assuming so and
that ExrireINI() does fprintf or similar, you need to check those
return values as well.

Yes, you show us that you check fopen()'s return value (in this
case). How about fclose() and fprintf()'s?

What's wrong with errno?

No. It's a much worse DPMI server. 1. It doesn't support detecting
NULL dereferences. 2. For each new release of WINDOWS, there are a new
bunch of bugs that the DJGPP libc has to work-around.


Right,
