Reads a WORD from memory
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax:

     dfPeekW( <nSeg>, <nOfs> ) --> nMemory

Parameters:

     <nSeg>     Memory segment.
     <nOfs>     Memory offset.

Returns:

     <nMemory> Value read in memory.

Description:

     Reads a WORD from memory.

Example:

     // Reads the address of the ports
     LOCAL nCom1, nCom2, nCom3, nCom4,;
           nLpt1, nLpt2, nLpt3, nLpt4
     
     nCom1 := dfPeekW( dfHex2Dec("0040"), dfHex2Dec("00") )
     nCom2 := dfPeekW( dfHex2Dec("0040"), dfHex2Dec("02") )
     nCom3 := dfPeekW( dfHex2Dec("0040"), dfHex2Dec("04") )
     nCom4 := dfPeekW( dfHex2Dec("0040"), dfHex2Dec("06") )
     nLpt1 := dfPeekW( dfHex2Dec("0040"), dfHex2Dec("08") )
     nLpt2 := dfPeekW( dfHex2Dec("0040"), dfHex2Dec("0A") )
     nLpt3 := dfPeekW( dfHex2Dec("0040"), dfHex2Dec("0C") )
     nLpt4 := dfPeekW( dfHex2Dec("0040"), dfHex2Dec("0E") )
     
     ? dfDec2Hex( nCom1 ) // Address of COM1
     ? dfDec2Hex( nCom2 ) // Address of COM2
     ? dfDec2Hex( nCom3 ) // Address of COM3
     ? dfDec2Hex( nCom4 ) // Address of COM4
     ? dfDec2Hex( nLpt1 ) // Address of LPT1
     ? dfDec2Hex( nLpt2 ) // Address of LPT2
     ? dfDec2Hex( nLpt3 ) // Address of LPT3
     ? dfDec2Hex( nLpt4 ) // Address of LPT4
