From: "Ian T. Zimmerman" Subject: system() ? To: djgpp AT sun DOT soe DOT clarkson DOT edu (DJ Delorie) Date: Thu, 27 Oct 1994 19:23:59 -0700 (PDT) What exactly does system() do ? Is there a way to make it spawn something other than COMMAND.COM, for instance, by setting COMSPEC in the environment? I looked at system.s in the library source, but that just jumps to turbo_assist or such, and turbo_assist just issues int 0x21, AH=0xff. Where's the code that handles the interrupt? Thanks a lot, itz. -- Ian T Zimmerman +-------------------------------------------+ P.O.
