FAR and NEAR specifiers used with JMP

 
The obscenity was these qualifiers making their way into C

code - try writing (or even reading) the declaration for a near
pointer to a function returning a far pointer to an array of
functions returning near pointers to integers.
 
Then realise that you *alos* wanted this source code to be
portable.

Which was why one used macros to conditionally compile code on MSDOG
and other platforms. And there were macros for far pointers, MK_FP()
for example. I think I have the remains of a hex disk editor somewhere
in my archives written in C with some assembler using Zortech C.
