Does anyone have any experience in writing TSR (Terminate & Stay Ready)
programs in either Microsoft C 5.0 or MS QuickC? Specifically, has
anyone made use of the _chain_intr, _dos_getvect, _dos_setvect and/or
_dos_keep functions?

The runtime library reference, which provides reasonably good examples
for most functions, has very little info. on these.

I'd appreciate any information about how to apply any or all of these
functions. Also, if someone has a short example handy, I'd sure like
to see the source code!

                                      Thanks,
                                       Jon


P.S:  Please don't respond that I should use assembly language. If
      I wanted to use MASM, I would, and a reader full of flames
      from assembler wonks won't help me learn C, which is the
      whole purpose of this exercise.
