MS-DOS

Summary: The huge keyword is allowed by QuickC when the Language Extensions switch is enabled. However, the keyword actually is ignored. There is no /AH option for a huge memory model with the QCL compiler. Page 58 of the C 5.x user’s guide states that the huge keyword is ignored if the /qc option is chosen when compiling in CL. None of the QuickC documentation describes these limitations. This information should be added to the “Microsoft Quick C Programmer’s Guide.”
