Notes: the next MCB is at segment (current + size + 1)

under DOS 3.1+, the first memory block is the DOS data segment,

for DOS 5.0, blocks owned by DOS may have either "SC" or "SD" in bytes
  08h and 09h.	"SC" is system code or locked-out inter-UMB memory,
  "SD" is system data, device drivers, etc.
Some versions of DR-DOS use only seven characters of the program name,
  placing a NUL in the eighth byte.

Note: the STACKS code segment data may, if present, be located as follows:

  DOS 3.2:	The code segment data is at a paragraph boundary fairly early
	in the IBMBIO segment (seen at 0070:0190h)
  DOS 3.3:	The code segment is at a paragraph boundary in the DOS data
	segment, which may be determined by inspecting the segment
	pointers of the vectors for those of interrupts 02h, 08h-0Eh,
	70h, 72-77h which have not been redirected by device drivers or

Notes: the input path need not actually exist

letters are uppercased, forward slashes converted to backslashes,
  asterisks converted to appropriate number of question marks, and
  file and directory names are truncated to 8.3 if necessary.
'.' and '..' in the path are resolved
filespecs on local drives always start with "d:", those on network
  drives always start with "\\"
if path string is on a JOINed drive, the returned name is the one that
  would be needed if the drive were not JOINed; similarly for a
  SUBSTed, ASSIGNed, or network drive letter.	Because of this, it is
  possible to get a qualified name that is not legal under the current
  combination of SUBSTs, ASSIGNs, JOINs, and network redirections
under DOS 3.3 through 5.00, a device name is translated differently if
  the device name does not have an explicit directory or the directory
  is \DEV (relative directory DEV from the root directory works
  correctly).  In these cases, the returned string consists of the
  unchanged device name and extension appended to the string X:/
  (forward slash instead of backward slash as in all other cases) where
  X is the default or explicit drive letter.
functions which take pathnames require canonical paths if invoked via
  INT 21/AX=5D00h
supported by OS/2 v1.1 compatibility box
NetWare 2.1x does not support characters with the high bit set; early
  versions of NetWare 386 support such characters except in this call.
  In addition, NetWare returns error code 3 for the path "X:\"; one
  should use "X:\." instead.
for DOS 3.3-5.0, the input and output buffers may be the same, as the
  canonicalized name is built in an internal buffer and copied to the
  specified output buffer as the very last step

Notes: if BX ⇐ 20, no action is taken if the handle limit has not yet been

  increased, and the table is copied back into the PSP if the limit
  is currently > 20 handles
for file handle tables of > 20 handles, DOS 3.30 never reuses the
  same memory block, even if the limit is being reduced; this can lead
  to memory fragmentation as a new block is allocated and the existing
  one freed
only the first 20 handles are copied to child processes in DOS 3.3

  table on requests for an even number of handles
