The old behavior was that DMEDIUM_DRIVE returned -1 when pointing to a dos
disk. it was not "correct" but it allowed me to distinguish the two types.
what do i need it for?
I use it in a couple of programs .. in particular the new file manager that
I have created and which I think I will be able to publish in a few
weeks. Obviously
it works the same but in front of each device he placed an icon to be able
to identify it if cd / ram / win / dos It would be interesting to be able
to distinguish all the types but obviously I have no idea of the work this
entails. Mine is not a criticism, I'm just chatting.
