   * Usually there is no necessity to minimize/restore a window
     explicitly: minimization of a window is carried out by the system
     at pressing the minimization button (for skinned windows
     it is defined automatically by function 0,
     for other windows it can be defined manually by function 8),
-    restore of a window is done by the application '@panel'.
+    restore of a window is done by the application '@taskbar'.

  Function 18, subfunction 11 - get information on the disk subsystem.

     * 3 = 720Kb, 3.5''
     * 4 = 1.44Mb, 3.5''
     * 5 = 2.88Mb, 3.5'' (such drives are not used anymore)
     For example, for the standard configuration from one 1.44-drive
     here will be 40h, and for the case 1.2Mb on A: and 1.44Mb on B:
     the value is 24h.
   First IDE controller:
   * +1: byte: information about hard disks and CD-drives, AABBCCDD,
     where AA corresponds to the controller IDE0, ..., DD - IDE3:
     * 0 = device not found
     * 1 = hard drive
     * 2 = CD-drive
     For example, in the case HD on IDE0 and CD on IDE2
     this field contains 48h.
   * +2: 4 db: number of the retrieved partitions on hard disks
     at accordingly IDE0,...,IDE3.
   Second IDE controller:
   * +6: byte: information about hard disks and CD-drives, AABBCCDD,
     where AA corresponds to the controller IDE4, ..., DD - IDE7:
     * 0 = device not found
     * 1 = hard drive
     * 2 = CD-drive
     For example, in the case HD on IDE4 and CD on IDE6
     this field contains 48h.
   * +7: 4 db: number of the retrieved partitions on hard disks
     at accordingly IDE4,...,IDE7.
   Third IDE controller:
   * +11: byte: information about hard disks and CD-drives, AABBCCDD,
     where AA corresponds to the controller IDE8, ..., DD - IDE11:
     * 0 = device not found
     * 1 = hard drive
     * 2 = CD-drive
     For example, in the case HD on IDE8 and CD on IDE10
     this field contains 48h.
   * +12: 4 db: number of the retrieved partitions on hard disks
     at accordingly IDE8,...,IDE11.
     If the hard disk on IDEx is absent, appropriate byte is zero,
     otherwise it shows number of the recognized partitions, which
     can be not presented (if the drive is not formatted or if
     layout is used and then from the code is subtracted 0x60;
     if no control key is pressed, the normal layout is used.
   * To get layout and country identifier use
     subfunction 2 of function 26.
   * Country identifier is global system variable, which is not used
-    by the kernel itself; however the application '@panel' displays

   * ebx = [top]*65536 + [bottom]
 Remarks:
   * The screen working area defines position and coordinates of
     a maximized window.
   * The screen working area in view of normal work is all screen
-    without system panel (the application '@panel').
+    without taskbar ('@taskbar' application).
   * (left,top) are coordinates of the left upper corner,
     (right,bottom) are coordinates of the right lower one.
     Thus the size of working area on x axis can be calculated by
     formula right-left+1, on y axis - by formula bottom-right+1.
   * See also function 14,

   * function does not return value

+    which set working area to all screen without taskbar.
   * (left,top) are coordinates of the left upper corner,

   * If 'left'>='right', x-coordinate of working area is not changed.
