INSTCMD.C

The "Installable Command" function is _not_ called by a program that
wants to extend COMMAND.COM's repertoire. Instead, you hook the
function and wait for COMMAND.COM to call you ("don't call us, we'll
call you"). Function AE00h lets you tell COMMAND.COM whether you
want to handle the command, and function AE01h is where you actually
handle it (similar to device driver division of labor between
Strategy and Interrupt).

Note that AE01h is called with only the name of the command: not with
any arguments. Therefore, arguments must be saved away in AE00h. Yuk!

Furthermore, while redirection _is_ handled in the normal way in
AE01, in AE00 we get the entire command string, including any
redirection or piping. Therefore, these must be stripped off before
saving away the args during AE00 processing.

Problem with following 2FAE00 and 2FAE01 handlers: they should
chain to previous handler. For example, with existing code, INTRSPY program
won't see 2FAE00 and 2FAE01 calls once INSTCMD is installed.

The sample COMMAND.COM extension used here is FULLNAME, based on the
undocumented TRUENAME command in DOS 4.x. We simply run undocumented
Function 60h in order to provide FULLNAME. Actually, not _quite_ so
simple, since Function 60h doesn't like leading or trailing spaces.
These are handled inside function fullname().

The following INTRSPY script was helpful in debugging 2FAE:

; INSTCMD.SCR
structure cmdline fields
    max (byte)
    text (byte,string,64)

intercept 2fh
    function 0aeh
        subfunction 00h
            on_entry
                if (dx == 0FFFFh)
                    output "AE00"
                    output (DS:BX->cmdline)
                    output CH        ; FFh first time, 0 second time
                    output ""
        subfunction 01h
            on_entry
                if (dx == 0FFFFh)
                    output "AE01"
                    output (DS:SI->byte,string,64)
