 +====== Int 21H, AH=37H, AL=02H ======
 +
 +===== Version =====

 +2.x and 3.3+ only
 +
 +===== Brief =====
 +
 +get availdev flag
 +
 +===== Family API =====
 +
 +
 +
 +===== Input =====
 +
 +        AH = 37h
 +        AL = 02h get availdev flag
 +
 +===== Return =====
 +
 + AL = status
 +            00h successful
 +            FFh unsupported subfunction
 + DL = 00h \DEV\ must precede character device names
 +                           = nonzero \DEV\ is optional
 +
 +===== Macro =====
 +
 +
 +===== Notes =====
 +
 +  all versions of DOS from 2.00 allow \DEV\ to be prepended to device
 +          names without generating an error even if the directory \DEV does
 +          not actually exist (other paths generate an error if they do not
 +          exist); DOS 2.x has an AVAILDEV= option in CONFIG.SYS to make \DEV
 +          mandatory
 +        although MS-DOS 3.3+, DR DOS 3.41+, and Novell DOS 7 accept these
 +          calls, they have no effect, and AL=02h always returns DL=FFh (except
 +          for Novell DOS 7, which leaves AX unchanged for both subfunctions)
 +
