| void NewTable(void) |
The NewTable function determines the keyboard type and attempts to load a language-specific keyboard library.
This function has no parameters.
This function has no return value.
The export ordinal for this function is 127.
The NewTable function determines the type of keyboard installed by reading settings from the [Keyboard] section of the SYSTEM.INI file. The function sets the internal keyboard-type variables and if a language-specific keyboard library is specified it loads the library and saves its handle. The driver subsequently uses this handle to determine whether to use the tables in the discardable table segment or the language-specific library's tables.
If the settings in the [Keyboard] section are not found or have no value, the
default type is determined by the type of system for which the particular driver
is designed.
