These functions are dosmemget(), dosmemput(), movedata() and
functions declared on the <sys/farptr.h> header file.  The first
3 are documented in the libcref.i info file, while the latter
are only described in the above header.  Read the DJGPP FAQ list,
question 18.4, to learn more about these and which is best suited
to your needs.  The FAQ can be gotten as faqNNN.zip from the same
site you use to get DJGPP.
