OS/2
Summary:
In Microsoft C versions 5.0, 5.1, 6.0, 6.0a, and 6.0ax, the only files
predefined in OS/2 are the following:
stdin, stdout, and stderr
By default, these files have the integer file handles 0, 1, and 2.
Under OS/2, the file handles stdprn and stdaux are not predefined as
they are under MS-DOS. Problems may occur when using the compiler to
create programs that attempt to write to stdaux and stdprn in OS/2
protected mode.
References to stdprn and stdaux files are not detected by the compiler
because it works in dual mode under both OS/2 and MS-DOS. Writing to
stdaux or stdprn fails under OS/2. No compiler errors, linker errors,
or warnings are generated in these cases.
