this got me looking into this 'too slow' detection method.

Hi Jerome,
if you are worried about collisions, use AMIS int 2d.
Overhead is low and it is less crowded than MUX int 2f.
RBIL was famous enough to make AMIS more widespread. FreeDOS is too
niche to re-invent that wheel and declare int 2b to be a new trend.
Why would your RESIDENT driver have

given that this detection will be done once
Hi Eric and Bret,
I looked at 2D, 2F and even absolute AMIS 7D.

It need not be just for one driver.
Anyone could hook 0x2b and is a very loose and light
Why not use AMIS (INT 2Dh)? It's there for the very reason you're proposing.
However, it's much more involved than your simple test, but also provides many,
many additional features and allows simple communication, interaction, and even
cooperation between all TSRs and Device Drivers that
Hi Jerome,
there is no need to allocate a whole int 0x2b for just one driver.
There are mechanisms which already invite drivers to share them :-)

AH = multiplex number
AL = function

Has there been any follow up on this issue?

Hi All,
At present, the interface program for Logger just performs a slightly optimized
brute force search for the Logger device driver. Although reliable, it is very
slow compared to providing a simple interrupt call to test for installation.
Looking at the different interrupts, I think I
