Hi all,

I'm writing a BASIC to C converter for DJGPP, I'm wondering about two
things.
Firstly the basic routine CALL ABSOLUTE takes a pointer to a string
containing CPU opcodes (not ASM mnemonics), how could I emulate this in
C?

Secondly with DJGPP does the DPMI host trap all real-mode requests or
just the ones it knows about?
If it does could I implement a BASIC Call absolute routine, written for
real-mode and would it run in pmode without having to modify anything?

Cheers,

leroy.
