Re: [Freedos-user] int 33 problem.
Hallo Herr kurt godel, am 13. Februar 2012 um 04:03 schrieben Sie: Am writing a C program which makes use of int33h; using union regs/int86.Trouble is there is a subfunction to initialize the mouse, but I see none to terminate it. The problem is that when the C program terminates, the mouse stays on, at least for a time(like a tsr). INT 33 - MS MOUSE v1.0+ - HIDE MOUSE CURSOR AX = 0002h Note: multiple calls to hide the cursor will require multiple calls to function 01h to unhide it. Once in a great while, I tap the mouse button when this happens, and then I can't even reinitialize the mouse. Then have to do a reboot(soft). Is there a slick way to terminate the mouse before leaving the C program? Richardwb2...@gmail.com. only guessing. after using INT 33 - MS MOUSE v1.0+ - DEFINE INTERRUPT SUBROUTINE PARAMETERS AX = 000Ch CX = call mask (see #03171) ES:DX - FAR routine (see #03172) you should terminate with CX=0 Mit freundlichen Grüßen/Kind regards Tom Ehlert +49-241-79886 -- Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!

[Freedos-user] New release of DOSUTILS
A new release of the DOSUTILS package is available and can be downloaded from here http://www.bttr-software.de/products/jhoffmann/ Three of the utilities the package consists of have been improved: RPN - a program that provides integer math to batch files e.g. for numeric loop counters or simple calculations. SELECT - a program that can serve as a directory browser or to display a scroll bar menu with any kind of content. FORM - a program that displays a freely definable form on the screen, accepts the user's input and stores the responses in one or more environment variables. In addition a new member joined the package FNTOOL - a tool to transform DOS filenames in many ways replacing commands like dirname or basename but more powerful than these two ones. These utilities (together with the other ones in the package) effectively increase the set of commands usable in batch procedures adding many features one might possibly miss when returning from UNIX shell scripting back to DOS batch programming and they might be particularly useful when writing installation or set-up procedures. Therefore especially the maker(s) of the new FreeDOS distribution CD might want to esplore the package to see whether some of these utilities are useful for that purpose. -- Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
