Look in the library sources (djlsr200.zip), in any function which calls 
DOS or BIOS.  Good candidates are src/libc/dos/io/_write.c and 
src/libc/dos/dos/truename.c.  You should also read sections 18.1-18.6 in 
the DJGPP FAQ list (available as faq102.zip from any SimTel mirror, 
directory SimTel/vendors/djgpp/.
