- ╚════════════════╝
-
- This option demonstrates a pair of assembler routines,
- GETFLAG and SETFLAG, which are used to set or get the
- current status of locations in the Intra-Application
- Communications Area, a 16-byte block of RAM reserved,
- by DOS, for signalling between applications programs.
-
- These flags retain their settings, even when a program
- terminates and so provide a limited means of parameter
- passing for stand-alone QuickBASIC programs, compiled
- with the /O switch.
