Hello,

I am looking for instructions on how to read the CPM/86 command line from
within Turbo Pascal specifically.

I have found the location of the command buffer, but it appears to be a
circular referenced affair. What I need is the pointer location if my
assumptions are correct, or any flames that might lead me in the correct
direction should my assumptions be wrong.

I will appreciate any and all advice as I haven't much hair left.

Thanks!
