Yes, I saw/read this.

That's the point. Personally, I would appreciate this as a "solution"
(or let me better say "feature") ;-).

I just installed MS-DOS 6.22 and it is not aware of BUFFERSHIGH,
FILESHIGH etc. as you remembered correctly. Ok, may be related to
Windows 9x... It's been a while since I worked with these operating
systems ;-).

Thanks,

Christian
