See also <CONFIG.SYS>

n specifies the number of files that File Control Blocks can open at one
time. Acceptable range is are 1-255.
m specifies the number files that DOS cannot automatically close.

File Control Blocks are an outdated method of handling files. Most
modern software uses file handles. This command should only be used
if older applications require it.
