BUFFERS.LQR is the squeezed form of BUFFERS.LBR. Most of the contents are small source files. All components are datestamped, and are protected by CCITCRC checksums, as is BUFFERS.LQR (but not BUFFERS.LBR). Thus "ccitcrc filename.typ" on any extracted component should yield a zero checksum. BUFFERS provides a buffering mechanism for diskfiles, i/o devices, and others. It provides for byte by byte extraction and insertion, and full du addressing. It is designed to operate correctly when the default drive and or user is changed after the files have been opened. The code is re-entrant, and need only appear once in any system. Buffer sizes and allocation are entirely up to the caller. After familiarization most users will only require one of BUFFLIB.SLR (in SLR format) or BUFFLIB.REL (in Microsoft format), depending on their linker, and BUFFERS.DOC, which summarizes all procedures available. The source can be examined if needed. Examination of the various TESTn.MAC files will demonstrate usage. Linking procedures can be checked by comparison with the pre-linked TESTn.OBJ files provided.
