Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

#define INCL_DOSDEVIOCTL
 
USHORT DosDevIOCtl(pbType, 0L, 0x0077, 0x0004, hDevice)
PBYTE pbType;     /* pointer to structure for keyboard type */
HFILE hDevice;    /* device handle                          */
 
The KBD_GETKEYBDTYPE function retrieves information about the type of
keyboard being used.
 
Parameter  Description

           the DosOpen function.
