/* 
FHANDLE.C
Alternative to using INT 21h Function 67h (added in DOS 3.3)

cl -qc fhandle.c countf.c
fhandle 40

NOTES:
    -- must have FILES= greater than 20 in CONFIG.SYS to have any effect
    -- (or, can use Quarterdeck FILES.COM program to increase SFT size)
    -- if want to open >20 files simultaneously with high-level function
       like fopen(), may have to increase run-time library tables. For
       example, in Microsoft C the size of table for FILE* is hard-wired
       to 20 in /msc/source/startup/_file.c (#define _NFILE_ 20). So
       would have to increase size of this table as well (and recompile
       startup code) if wanted to use >20 fopen() at once, even after
       using the code below.
