>come on, give me some input!!

Here are the list of ROM calls I suggest that DHOS supports:
(*-new additions in Update III)
ZShell's
Usgards
SRCH_RAM-search the 85's RAM for a var
SRCH_EII-same as above but in EII
DEL_VAR_EII-delete a var from EII
ERASE_EII-erase the EII
SENDB_EII-send a byte to the EII
SENDV_EII-send a var to the EII
RECVB_EII-receive a byte from the EII
RECVV_EII-receive a var from the EII
EIIMPB_OUT-ouput a 6bit byte the the EII's module port(EMP)
EIIMPB_IN-get a 6 bit byte from the EMP
EIIMPx_HI-x is 1-6;Make EMP pin x high(a 1)
EIIMPx_LO-" "    "     "        "       "  "  low (a 0)
EIIMPx_IN-" "     ";get the logic level of pin x
CONFIG_EIIMP-set up EMP
SRCHR_LIB-search for a library in RAM
SRCHE_LIB-     "       "  "     "      "   EII
LD_LIB-copy a lib to the 85
RMV_LIB-delete a lib from the RAM
LD_PRGM-copy a program to RAM
RMV_PRGM-delete a program from RAM, copy back if changed
LCD_ON-self explanatory
LCD_OFF-ditto
CONTRAST_RD-get contrast value
CONTRAST_WR-change contrast value
INC_CON-increase the contrast by value in A
DEC_CON-decrease the conrast by value in A
SEND_I2CR-send a byte in I2C(on EMP) in raw format
RECV_I2CR-receive a byte
SEND_I2CM-send data or a var in MBUS format
RECV_I2CM-receive "  "   "   "   "      "           "
SEND_TIP-send data or a var in TI-protocal format
RECV_TIP-same as above but receive
EXIT_TIOS-exit back to TI-OS
SQRT-square root
FP_ADD-floating point add
FP_AUB-floating point subtract
FP_MUL-floating point multiply
FP_DIV-floating point divide
INT_MUL-integer multiply
INT_DIV-integer divide
KEY_TO_NUMBER-get key and change to number(if possible), if not return 
              key
KEY_TO_LETTERU-same as above but change to uppercase letter
KEY_TO-LETTERL-ditto but lowercase
FP_TO_BIN-convert floating poing(FP) # to binary #
FP_TO_BCD-same as above but to Binary Coded Decimal(BCD)
INT_TO_FP-integer to FP
BIN_TO_BCD-binary # to BCD(ie %10000011(130d) to 130h(%0001 0011 0000)
BCD_TO_BIN-vice versa
ASCII_TO_BIN-covert an ASCII # to binary(ie '02' to %00000010)
BIN_TO_ASCII-vice versa
BCD_TO_ASCII-convert an ASCII # to BCD(ie 'F0' to %11110000($F0)
ASCII_TO_BCD-vice versa
*DISP_PIC-display a 85i file
*DISP_ZCP-decompress and display a ZCP file
*DISP_GCP-   "        "     "    " GCP  "
*PLAY_MCP-play a ASMovie(or MCP) file
*INT_GRAY4-intialize grayscale 4
*INT_GRAY8-intialize grayscale 8
*DEI_GRAY4-deinitialize grayscale 4
*DEI_GRAY8-deinitialize grayscale 8
*FREE_MEM_RAM-return amout of free mem on the 85
*USED_MEM_RAM-  "      "    " used  "   "   "  "
*FREE_MEM_EII-return amout of free mem on the EII
*USED_MEM_EII-  "      "    " used  "   "   " EII


any more?

what do you think?
