Summary:
There is a minor error in the Microsoft C version 6.0, 6.0a, and 6.0ax
online help for the functions inp(), inpw(), outp(), and outpw(). The
help states that a .DEF is required to use these functions, but this
is required only under OS/2.
The first sentence in the third paragraph in the description of these
functions states:
You must use a .DEF file to declare the IOSEG segment that the
run-time library uses to perform input/output on the port.
This line should read:
To use inp(), inpw(), outp(), and outpw() in OS/2 protect mode, you
must use a .DEF file to declare the IOSEG segment that the run-time
library uses to perform input/output on the port.
