/*
SETEA.C Assigns an ASCII extended attribute to a file.
Demonstrates use of the getEA() and putEA()
subroutines in GETPUTEA.C.
This program does not require Microsoft or IBM
Toolkit header files, but must be built using LINK
and DOSCALLS.LIB from retail OS/2 version 1.2.
Warning: EA names and values are case sensitive.
