operating parameters using the Notebook Control Style. Sysinfo will display the
following:
System
The user can see parameters that are concerned with the overall opertion
of the system.
Memory
The user can see how the system memory is allocated.
Timers
The user can see the current status of the system's Timers are.

Each system variable is a doubleword value. The following list gives the
ordinal index, name, and description of the system variables.
System Information
They can see the current settings.
1.QSV_MAX_PATH_LENGTH
Maximum length, in bytes, of a path name.
2.QSV_MAX_TEXT_SESSIONS
Maximum number of text sessions.
3.QSV_MAX_PM_SESSIONS
Maximum number of PM sessions.
4.QSV_MAX_VDM_SESSIONS
Maximum number of DOS sessions.
5.QSV_BOOT_DRIVE
Drive from which the system was started (1 means drive A, 2 means drive B,
and so on).
6.QSV_DYN_PRI_VARIATION
Dynamic priority variation flag (0 means absolute priority, 1 means
dynamic priority).
7.QSV_MAX_WAIT
Maximum wait in seconds.
8.QSV_MIN_SLICE
Minimum time slice in milliseconds.
9.QSV_MAX_SLICE
Maximum time slice in milliseconds.
10.QSV_PAGE_SIZE
Memory page size in bytes. This value is 4096 for the 80386 processor.
11.QSV_VERSION_MAJOR
Major version number.
12.QSV_VERSION_MINOR
Minor version number.
13.QSV_VERSION_REVISION
Revision letter.
14.QSV_MS_COUNT
Value of a 32-bit, free-running millisecond counter. This value is zero
when the system is started.
15.QSV_TIME_LOW
Low-order 32 bits of the time in seconds since January 1, 1970 at 0-00-00.
16.QSV_TIME_HIGH
High-order 32 bits of the time in seconds since January 1, 1970 at
0-00-00.
17.QSV_TOTPHYSMEM
Total number of pages of physical memory in the system. One page is 4KB.
18.QSV_TOTRESMEM
Total number of pages of resident memory in the system.
19.QSV_TOTAVAILMEM
Maximum number of pages of memory that can be allocated by all processes
in the system. This number is advisory and is not guaranteed, since
system conditions change constantly.
20.QSV_MAXPRMEM
Maximum number of bytes of memory that this process can allocate in its
private arena. This number is advisory and is not guaranteed, since
system conditions change constantly.
21.QSV_MAXSHMEM
Maximum number of bytes of memory that a process can allocate in the
shared arena. This number is advisory and is not guaranteed, since system
conditions change constantly.
22.QSV_TIMER_INTERVAL
Timer interval in tenths of a millisecond.
23.QSV_MAX_COMP_LENGTH
Maximum length, in bytes, of one component in a path name.
An application can specify file objects managed by an installable file system
that supports long file names. Because some installable file systems support
longer names than others, the application should issue DosQuerySysInfo upon
initialization.
DosQuerySysInfo returns the maximum path length (QSV_MAX_PATH_LENGTH)
supported by the installed file system. The path length includes the drive
specifier (d), the leading backslash ( \ ), and the trailing null character.
The value returned by DosQuerySysInfo can be used to allocate buffers for
path names returned by other functions, for example, DosFindFirst and
DosFindNext.
