Int 21 Fn 86 - European MS-dos 4.0 - "setfiletable" - Install New File H [D]
AH = 86h
BX = total number of file handles in new table
Return: CF clear if successful
CF set on error
AX = error code (06h,08h) (see AH=59h)
Desc: adjust the size of the per-process open file table, thus raising or
lowering the limit on the number of files the caller can open
simultaneously
Notes: any currently-open files are copied to the new table
if the table is increased beyond the default 20 handles, only the
first 20 will be inherited by child processes
error 06h is returned if the requested number of handles exceeds
system limits or would require closing currently-open files
