Screen Control Functions for C02
This module contains functions for screen and cursor manipulation.
The accompanying assembly code vary by platform, so when invoking the
cross-compilers, the command line option -s must be used to ensure that
the correct header files are included.
At the beginning of the program use the directives
#include <screen.h02>
The following functions should be defined:
clrscn(); Clears the screen and returns the cursor to the home
position.
Returns with no action if the platform does not
support the clear screen action.
crsrhm(); Moves cursor to home position (upper left corner
of the screen).
Returns with no action if the platform does not
support cursor positioning.
setpos(c,r); Moves cursor to column c on row r. The topmost row
and leftmost column are numbered 0.
Returns with no action if the platform does not
support cursor positioning.
c,r = getpos(); Returns the current row and column of the cursor. The
topmost row and leftmost column are numbered 0.
Note: Returns 255 for both the width and height if
the platform does not support cursor positioning.
w,h = getsiz (); Returns the current screen or window width and height
in rows and columns.
Note: Returns 255 for width and/or height if either or
both are cannot be determined via software. Since all
supported platforms have less than 128 screen rows and
columns, the :- test can be used on these values.
