RE: A83: Input
I put almost unlimited chars in a string through TI-Basic, the problem with 16 chars, is that the TIOS can't display strings of over 16 chars properly on the home screen (it's kinda dumb, it doesn't understand to go to the next line.. but hey, that's no problem in assembly, puts automatiaclly goes to the next line if the current line is full)
Greetings,
Peter Martijn

Subject: A83: Input
I'm trying to make a !fast! program to make graphs (it's my first program in
asm btw, so i still have a LOT to learn, but I hope you can help me). I
first ask the user to put in the equotation, but now i'm doubting wether to
put it in a string or in something else, because you only can put in 16
characters in a string, or am i wrong? this was my code so far:
ld de,821ch ;put the prompt here
ld hl,prompt
ld bc,16 ;length of prompt, max = 16
ldir
ld a,0 ;code for STRING input
ld (ASM_IND_CALL),a
call PGMIO_EXEC ;defined in squish.inc
call _CHKFINDSYM
push bc
push de
push hl
I there an other way? or maybe I have to save it in Y1 first and convert it
with something like 'Equ => String' (I use what i'm used to in BASIC), i'm
just gessing, hope you can help me...
(i got my code from ASM83-guru by J Matthews)
