Subject: INT14 waiting for character
Date: 26 Jan 2004 03:28:47 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <yfiisizeyog.fsf@triumf.ca> (raw)

Hello,

Attempting to run an old program under dosemu, I and collegues 
have run afoul of the INT14 emulation, specifically:

  These routines are not flawless since it does not wait 
  for a character during receive, and this may confuse some 
  programs.

Is there any hope of getting a version of INT14 that waits for
a character?  Either by patching the current code, or by using
a different IO support library?  I think something that did 
high-level access to the linux port would work fine for us.

If there is some known fix for this, I would love to hear it.
If is not, then I could help with improving it; not that I know
anything on the topic, but I migght be able to scrounge some help.

(Is Mark Rejhon still involved?)
