TC: int absread( int drive, int count, int start, void *buffer )
- prototype in dos.h
- reads absolute logical disk sectors
- drive = (0=A:, 1=B:, 2=C:, ...)
- count = # of sectors to read
- start = beginning logical sector number
- buffer = address of buffer
- TC++ accounts for DOS 4.x+ long sector values while TC 2.0 and
earlier do not (see INT 25)
- returns 0 if OK; -1 on error; errno has DOS error number
