Carlock) Newsgroups: comp.sys.ibm.pc Subject: C write() operations to MS-DOS devices? Keywords: write() to MS-DOS devices: PRN, CON, AUX ... Message-ID: <1318@tahoe.unr.edu> Date: 25 May 88 21:30:06 GMT Organization: Univ. of Nev., Reno-Mathematics Lines: 17 Can anyone tell me, or point me to some info describing, how to do a C write() operation to an MS-DOS device (such as PRN, AUX, etc.) ? I have looked through the MicroSoft C V.5.0 manuals, but have found very little, if anything, on this subject. The DOS manual likewise had little or nothing to say about these devices, programming-wise. Neither PRN nor LPT1 are defined in any of the I/O or file-control .h files, nor do they appear in any of the C manual indexes. Thanks in advance, Malcolm L.
