#ARexx -> ASM example.
2 messages in this thread
Can someone 'please' volunteer to write up the following 'very simple' 'very
understandable' assembly (read -> 68000) program? I think that it is
desparately needed for us assembly programmers:
This is involving ARexx, and the very simple 'hello world' window.
The ARexx portion would be:
* print 'hello world' in the window */ address 'rexx_window' print 'hello
world'
The window would be the basic simple hello world window with a WINDOWCLOSE
gadget, an ARexx port called 'rexx_window', and an ARexx command called
'print'. Therefore, any string may be printed in the window.
I hope that there is somebody out there who can do this for us. I just 'can't'
get a hang of this……..and an example of this type would go a -> long
way…believe me! Thanks a million!!!!!!!!!!!
Luciano,
The ARexx distribution disk has an assembly-language example called `hosttest'
that opens a port and waits for commands to be issued to it, and prints out the
commands it receives. To try it out, open a separate CLI and run the hosttest
program, and then run an ARexx program from your first CLI to issue a command.
It's pretty simple but at least illustrates receiving and replying to ARexx
commands.
I'm glad someone at last asked for an assembly-code example — usually the
reqeusts are for examples in anything but assembly 🙂
