/*
** FILES.C: A program to determine the number of file handles
**
** Released in to the Public Domian by Matthew Hunt @ 1:129/135, in the
** hopes that no "programmer" will be so lazy that he|she simple reads
** the CONFIG.SYS file ever again.
**
** Any improvements and modifications are welcome, but I ask that all
** modified versions also be placed into the Public Domain.
**
** Information on the List of Lists and SFT format was provided by
** PC Magazine November 26, 1991, and PC Interrupts by Ralf Brown
** and Jim Kyle. FILES.C was originally written for Power C.
**
** Modifcations for other compiler support by Bob Stout @ 1:106/2000.6
