Notes: this function is passed through to INT 2F/AX=111Eh by the DOS kernel
error code 12h is returned if BX is greater than the size of the list
also supported by Banyan VINES, PC-NFS, LANtastic, and 10NET
supported by LapLink RemoteAccess but returns the local drive letter;
the remote drive letter can be obtained with INT 2F/AX=Cxxxh
(see INT 2F/AX=C000h"LapLink")
the returned device name may or may not include a colon, depending on
the network software

Notes: if device type is disk drive, DS:SI must point at either a null string
or a string consisting the drive letter followed by a colon; if a
null string, the network attempts to access the destination without
redirecting a local drive
the DOS kernel calls INT 2F/AX=111Eh with AX on top of the stack

AL = destroyed (00h or 2Fh or 5Ch or last character of current

buffer filled with qualified name of form D:\PATH\FILE.EXT or
\\MACHINE\PATH\FILE.EXT
Desc: determine the canonical name of the specified filename or path,
corresponding to the undocumented TRUENAME command in COMMAND.COM
Notes: the input path need not actually exist
letters are uppercased, forward slashes converted to backslashes,
asterisks converted to appropriate number of question marks, and
file and directory names are truncated to 8.3 if necessary. (DR DOS
3.41 and 5.0 do not expand asterisks)
'.' and '..' in the path are resolved
filespecs on local drives always start with "d:", those on network
drives always start with "\"
if path string is on a JOINed drive, the returned name is the one that
would be needed if the drive were not JOINed; similarly for a
SUBSTed, ASSIGNed, or network drive letter. Because of this, it is
possible to get a qualified name that is not legal under the current
combination of SUBSTs, ASSIGNs, JOINs, and network redirections
under DOS 3.3 through 6.00, a device name is translated differently if
the device name does not have an explicit directory or the directory
is \DEV (relative directory DEV from the root directory works
correctly). In these cases, the returned string consists of the
unchanged device name and extension appended to the string X:/
(forward slash instead of backward slash as in all other cases) where
X is the default or explicit drive letter.
under MS-DOS 7.0, this call returns the short name for any
long-filename portions of the provided pathname or filename
functions which take pathnames require canonical paths if invoked via
INT 21/AX=5D00h
supported by OS/2 v1.1 compatibility box
NetWare 2.1x does not support characters with the high bit set; early
versions of NetWare 386 support such characters except in this call.
In addition, NetWare returns error code 3 for the path "X:"; one
should use "X:\." instead.
Novell DOS 7 reportedly has difficulty with non-MS-DOS filenames on
network drives, and can return "D:" instead of "SERVER/VOLUME"
for DOS 3.3-6.0, the input and output buffers may be the same, as the
canonicalized name is built in an internal buffer and copied to the
specified output buffer as the very last step
for DR DOS 6.0, this function is not automatically called when on a
network. Device drivers reportedly cannot make this call from their
INIT function. Using the same pointer for both input and output
buffers is not supported in the April 1992 and earlier versions of
DR DOS
Windows for Workgroups 3.11, Windows95 and even MS-DOS 7.00 only
return the local drive path; to obtain network paths use
INT 21/AX=5F02h or INT 21/AX=5F46h instead
Corel's CORELCDX and MSCDEX without the /S switch return canonical
names of the form "\\D.\A.\path", where "D" is the CD-ROM drive
letter and "A" appears to indicate the first physical CD-ROM drive;
MSCDEX with the /S switch returns a canonical name with embedded
blanks. Novell DOS 7 NWCDEX as of the 11/16/94 update returns the
same canonical path as MSCDEX; earlier revisions returned
"Cdex. D:\path", where "D" is the CD-ROM drive letter
the Windows95 MSCDEX-replacement VxD returns "D:\path", even though the
MS-DOS 7.00 MSCDEX behaves identically to older versions (above)
BUG: Windows95 incorrectly treats filenames where the first two characters
after the drive letter and colon are both slashes (either forward
or backward) as a UNC (network name) and requires several seconds
to attempt to resolve the name before returning an unchanged
string

Notes: not all code pages are available in all versions of DOS or
DOS-compatibles, and many (particularly EBCDIC) have not been
implemented for *any* DOS to date
CECP = 'Country Extended CodePage' by IBM.
Unicode (UCS-2) is a 16-bit character codeset, covering all commonly
used characters from almost any language. Not all definitions are
fixed at the time of this writing. Unicode will be the future of
character coding for the foreseeable future, but is only the
"basic multilingual plane" (BMP) subset of 32-bit ISO 10646 codes
(UCS-4), a single character set standard covering requirements for
all countries and languages, which is still under construction.
The MS Windows 'ANSI' codepage 1252 (based on the MS Windows 3.0+
implementation) appears to be 100% compatible with the code sets
used by Amiga OS and Acorn Archimedes RISC-OS and is also a linear
subset of the 16bit UniCode code set (UCS-2); the actual ANSI
codepage is defined by ISO 8859-1 (Latin 1).
At least applications for OS/2 Warp 3 Presentation Manager can use
EBCDIC codepages, but the codepage ID assignments for EBCDIC
codepages are not known for OS/2. OS/2 SAA codepages are not
supported in CONFIG.SYS. Codepage 65400 "Glyphs" is not actually a
codepage, but a way to directly access the first 256 of the 383
glyphs from the current font set.
Novell DOS 7/DR DOS 6/Caldera OpenDOS undocumented codepage 853
does not necessarily match with MS-DOS' undocumented codepage 853.
Undocumented codepages 667 and 668 can be found in Russian's PTS/DOS
6.51 and S/DOS 1.x DISPLAY.CPI and contain some Eastern European
characters.
Novell NetWare 3.xx clients support UniCode and codepages 437, 850,
860, 863, 865, 897, 932, and 1252 (possibly more). NetWare 4.xx
clients also support 1250, 1251, 1256. Personal NetWare 1.0 (PNW),
as it was distributed in Europe, supports UniCode and codepages 437,
850 and 1252. Novell's Client32 for DOS/Windows supports 874, 932,
936, 949, 950, 1250 - 1257. For codesets not yet available, Novell
offers a reduced ASCII 7-bit support through a codepage 0 used as a
translation table to UniCode, that supports characters 32-127 except
92 ('\').

AH = 67h
BX = size of new file handle table for process
Return: CF clear if successful
CF set on error
AX = error code (see #01680 at AH=59h/BX=0000h)
Desc: adjust the size of the per-process open file table, thus raising or
lowering the limit on the number of files the caller can open
simultaneously
Notes: if BX <= 20, no action is taken if the handle limit has not yet been
increased, and the table is copied back into the PSP if the limit
is currently > 20 handles
for file handle tables of > 20 handles, DOS 3.30 never reuses the
same memory block, even if the limit is being reduced; this can lead
to memory fragmentation as a new block is allocated and the existing
one freed
only the first 20 handles are copied to child processes in DOS 3.3-6.0
increasing the file handles here will not, in general, increase the
number of files that can be opened using the runtime library of a
high-level language such as C
Novell DOS 7 reportedly terminates the calling program if the JFT is
being reduced in size and there are any open file handles beyond
the portion of the JFT being retained
BUGS: the original release of DOS 3.30 allocates a full 64K for the handle
table on requests for an even number of handles
DR DOS 3.41 and 5.0 will lose track of any open file handles beyond
the portion of the JFT retained after the call; MS-DOS will indicate
error 04h if any of the JFT entries to be removed are open

this function is supported under Novell NetWare versions 2.0A through

the volume label is the NetWare volume label, and the file system
is set to "FAT16".
this function is not supported by Novell DOS 7 through Update 13, but
Personal NetWare 1.0 and Update 15 do support this function
the serial number is computed from the current date and time when the
disk is created; the first part is the sum of the seconds/hundredths
and month/day, the second part is the sum of the hours/minutes and
year
the volume label which is read or set is the one stored in the extended
BPB on disks formatted with DOS 4.0+, rather than the special root
directory entry used by the DIR command in COMMAND.COM (use AH=11h

Notes: this function reportedly returns a maximum of 2GB free space even on
an FAT32 partition larger than 2GB under some versions of Win95,
apparently by limiting the number of reported free clusters to no
more than 64K
on DOS versions which do not support the FAT32 calls, this function
returns CF clear/AL=00h (which is the DOS v1+ method for reporting
unimplemented functions)
