 BIOS disk I/O routines for floppy drives. Supports DOS
 real mode, DOS protected mode, and Windows. Requires
 TP6, TPW, or BP7.

 All functions are for floppy disks only; no hard drives.

 See the individual types and functions in the interface of
 this unit for more information. See the FMT.PAS sample
 program for an example of formatting disks.

 For status code definitions, see the implementation of
 function GetStatusStr.

 ---------------------------------------------------------
 Based on a unit provided by Henning Jorgensen of Denmark.
 Modified and cleaned up by TurboPower Software for pmode
 and Windows operation.
