Hi, I wrote a patch that makes some clean of the unit Dos.pp of the Go32v2 version of the FPC 2.0.5. It corrects two buffer exceeding in a string check and conversion. For better understanding in further developement only. Regards, Marco Borsari.

I applied your patch in trunk, hoping that you
hadn't overlooked something. ;-) In general, I'm
not sure if this kind of saving 1 byte
dynamically allocated on stack is really worth
the risk of possibly breaking something, because
the 1 byte might have been still needed in some
special case after all (admittedly, I couldn't
find why this should happen, which is the reason
why I applied the patch)...

It makes possible a strict check in the space of
allocation, let's the string be
#3abc#10#13
when there's no prefix (as in the environement
strings) it needs an exceeding of two characters
nor three. The purpose of the modification is quite purely understanding of the code.
