Subject:	Hooking interrupts in djgpp
Message-ID:	<8C63F95F0C@fs2.mt.umist.ac.uk>

I know what `hooking an interrupt' is, but is there a routine in djgpp to do
it thus?:-

#include<dos.h>
  int zxcvbnm(Regs&R){blah(); blah(); waffle(); blah();};
/*-----*/
main(){ .........
hook_an_interrupt(0x21,zxcvbnm);

and from here on, any call of an int21 interrupt will do this:-
  Preserve the registers in a `Regs' as described in \djgpp\include\dos.h .
  Call zxcvbnm() with that Regs as its argument.
  If zxcvbnm() returns 0, return to the user program.
  If zxcvbnm() returns non-zero, go to the previous entry address of int21.

  That would be useful.
