Perhaps you can point (just tell on top as reference) to any glossary found in the CPU manuals and/or the OS-help index. [just for the few who may really need to ask questions like this] __ wolfgang

"The CPU sees..." or "The CPU thinks...", but that's not what I had in mind. ;; This 'ExitProcess' is a Function of the OS (in 'KERNEL32.DLL, exactly), which job is to terminate the Program's Execution (Process End, Handles closure...). ;; That reads awkwardly, to me. Maybe "which has the job...". Or maybe just "which terminates ...". I might eliminate "exactly", too. Not really a problem the way it is. Best, Frank |
