Large arrays in MSDOS

[Scott Linn]

Hello,

I've been having a problem trying to use an array greater than 64k on
an msdos machine.  What I have is the following:

char foo;
char FAR *bigbuf;
.
.
.
bigbug=farmalloc(125000L);

Then, I try to use bigbuf as a linear array:

bigbuf((long) some_pointer*some_num) = foo;

(I have compiled using the D model)

I am having problems with getting this to work, and I'm not sure if it's
something in my implementation, or my whole method is bogus.  Does
anyone out there know if this should work?

Thanks,

Scott Linn
