- The structure contains fields corresponding to the registers of the PC
- processor (e.g., ax, dx). You will probably find the declaration is a
- compiler-distributed header file such as "dos.h" or "msdos.h".
- Alternatively, you can search to the structure delcaration in the include
- directory for the compiler.
