I suppose TSR = Terminate (but) Stay Resident I have a few doubts on this front :
1. Does this mean , that once I switch my machine that is running a TSR , the TSR is gone ? I guess that for all programs , a shutdown or poweroff , stops the process. 2. One of my friends said that if a TSR hits the machine , you might have to re-format the disk ! I dis-agree with him , because after all the TSR is a process , and as I already suggested a shutdown or poweroff will abruptly terminate it . Maybe because it writes itself into the Interrupt Vector Table , but a poweroff prevents that too , doesn't it ? 3. Till date I believe that Unix/Linux - based machines do not support TSRs , am I right ? I reason that since the header file from which TSRs take all their functions , id the dos.h you can't have TSRs on Unixes. Pls offer your views on this + clear my conceptions / mis-conceptions .
