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documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.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(0L, pfFlags, 0x0052, 0x0004, hDevice)
PBYTE pfFlags;    /* pointer to variable with flags */
HFILE hDevice;    /* device handle                  */
 
The KBD_SETINTERIMFLAG function sets the interim character flags.
 
Parameter  Description
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
pfFlags    Points to the variable that contains the interim flags. If the
           variable is 0x0020, the program requested conversion. If the
           variable is 0x0080, the interim character flag is set.
 
hDevice    Identifies the keyboard that receives the device-control
           function. The handle must have been created previously by using
           the DosOpen function.
 
Return Value
 
The return value is zero if the function is successful or an error value if
an error occurs.
 
Comments
 
The keyboard device driver maintains the interim character flags for each
screen group and passes the interim character flags (with each character
data record) to the keyboard monitors. The interim character flags set by
this function are not the same as the interim character flags in a character
data record.
