SET SHARING RETRY COUNT
AX = 440Bh CX = pause between retries (default 1) DX = number of retries (default 3)
CF clear if successful
CF set on error AX = error code (01h) (see #01680 at AH=59h/BX=0000h)
delay is dependent on processor speed (value in CX specifies number of 64K-iteration empty loops to execute)
if DX=0000h on entry, the retry count is left unchanged
this function was not supported by Digital Research's DOS Plus
AH=52h,INT 2F/AX=1224h,INT 2F/AX=122Bh
