FarAddr internal function
Thanks, that brings me further :-)
I also changed my coding style from a more C oriented style to a more
Pascal like. Unlike in C, one does not have to pass around (explicit)
pointers that often. For example instead of doing
procedure F(buffer : FarPointer);
I now do:
procedure F(var buffer);
begin
...
... FarAddr(buffer) ...
...
But I still have not found an elegant solution yet to do a widening
conversion of an untyped pointer from near to far. Should be rarely
needed though. For a typed pointer FarAddr(thing^) does the trick.
