Hello again, Netlanders,
This time I bring you not a review, but some questions.
1) Word Perfect is working pretty well, but for one thing: the
<Insert Date> function also inserts the wrong date, and WP apparently does
not use the GEMDOS clock for its date. So, easy, right? I just set the
keyboard clock, right? Well, I tried that, and it keeps giving me wierd
results. So, can anyone give me a code fragment to set the keyboard
clock? Perhaps a short routine to set it, given the time and/or date?
2) Anyone who has used DRI's Resource Construction Set v2 has seen those
little pop-up menus it uses on the Tools section. Can anyone tell me how this
is done? Are those things just normal menus, hand-arranged to work on a
different part of the screen? What?
3) Also, can someone tell me how to do GEM calls in assembly? I
am using MadMAC.
4) Would some kind soul send me the new Atari linker, ALN? I had it,
but accidentally trashed it before backing it up.
Thanks.
