You already have INT21/33FC. Why to introduce _another_ FreeDOS
specific function (which not present neither in MS-DOS 5-8, DR-DOS, ROM-DOS,
etc)?
PS: BTW, Eric, may you recall URL for your CALLVER? Unfortunately, I lost
it, but it was need me sometime (because I need to run, say, MS-SYS6 under
MS-DOS7).

It requres changes in config.sys, and it changes itself. :(
