	AH = 16h
	DS:DX -&gt; unopened FCB (see <a href=../../it/45/13.html>#01345</a>), wildcards not allowed
Return: AL = status
	    00h successful
	    FFh directory full or file exists and is read-only or locked
Notes:	if file already exists, it is truncated to zero length
	if an extended FCB is used, the file is given the attribute in the
	  FCB; this is how to create a volume label in the disk's root dir
	not supported by MS Windows 3.0 DOSX.EXE DOS extender
	(FAT32 drive) this function will only succeed for creating a volume
	  label; FAT32 does not support FCBs for file I/O
