HENRIK SCHMIDT-MOELLER
I've made some procedures for EMS addressing in TP. EMS uses a technic called
bank switching. It reserves a 64k area (EmmSeg) in memory for EMS and maps/
unmaps 16k EMS-pages in this area. Look at interrupt 67h for a complete list of
EMS commands. I haven't had time to comment on these procedures, so if you
don't understand them, feel free to ask. OK, here goes nothing...
Oh, by the way, REMEMBER to DEallocate!!!
