Obhack:  I was working on a Lantastic 6.0 network, and was writing a batch
file to create a log of who used an application.  I was wanting to echo
the NetBIOS machine name to a text file.  I started trying to use a
bletcherous combination of piping NET SHOW through FIND, but realized
what I needed was the Unix 'whoami' command.  So I wrote a 126-byte .com
file that uses the Function 5E00h of Int 21h to echo the right-trimmed
Machine Name to stdout.  It works great on Lantastic, and SHOULD work on
other NetBIOS networks, but I've tested it only on Lantastic.  Email me
if you want the 80x86 assembly (TASM) source...
