Hi Rod,

thank you for your message. I tried to follow your suggestion 2, but
did not succeed. It seems to read the environment segment ok but does
not read the right environment data. Can you spot what I am doing
wrong? I am testing in a Windows XP DOS box.

Regards

Georg Potthast

#include <stdio.h>
#include <go32.h>
#include <sys/movedata.h>
#define env_size 2049

int main()
{
	int i;
	unsigned int env_address = 0;
	unsigned long the_psp = 0;
    static char environment[env_size];

	the_psp = _go32_info_block.linear_address_of_original_psp;
	dosmemget(the_psp + 0x2C, 2, &env_address);
	env_address <<= 4; //make linear address
	printf("\nENV:%04X\n",env_address);
	dosmemget(env_address, sizeof(environment), &environment);
 	for (i=0;i<env_size;i++) {printf("%c",environment[i]);}
 return 0;
}
