Re: Speculator

Hi Tony

Sorry to hear about your health and having to sell all your Einstein stuff.

Sadly I don’t have the money, space or time but what are you looking to get for it all?

Re: Disable the 80 column card using code

I’m trying to get my head around Borland Turbo Pascal. It’s quite good!

The development environment is very advanced for the time.

Disable the 80 column card using code

Hello!

Does anyone know how to disable the 80 column card using machine code?

Basically I am developing using Borland Turbo Pascal in 80 column mode but want the software I am writing to run in 40 column mode without having to exit to DOS and press keys to switch manually.

Thanks!

Setting X position to scratchpad area FB4A and Y position to FB4B should do the job.
Thanks!

Is there a source of this type of information somewhere? I have the manuals that came with my Tatung and a copy of the Einstein Assembly Language course but thats it.

Print text at X,Y in assembly language

Hello all

Anyone know how to PRINT text at a specified X,Y location in assembly?

I can see built in routines to do graphics and print text at the current cursor position but have not found how to set the cursor position.

Thanks!
