Ps/2 Drivers

Basically, do this:

CODE

GetLoop:
call ps2getbyte
ld h,0
ld l,a
call _disphl
call _getkey

I'm confused, why call _getkey and why use that label?

Oh, and I'll see if I can mod my calc<->com1 cable to connect to an old keyboard and test it for my Ti83.

Wouldn't it do the exact same without the label and without the _getkey? I mean, you're not going to loop it, and if the program exits it doesn't clear the screen so the value returned into HL and displayed should still be visible.

You're absolutely right. I was thinking in terms of programs running under a shell, e.g. Doors CS Very Happy

And I'm not sure exactly why I put that label...

Ah, I see, just making sure I'm right and I do understand at least that much of assembly. : )

Errr...you mean the incorrect schematics that are there? If so, you're right.

I found a DIN to serial adapter that I can use to test out your keyboard. I'll let you know how it went this evening.

Well, my mouse came with an adapter to connect to a serial mouse. It originally connects via PS/2 standards.

Okay, well, I tried to test it out, but I can't run Doors CS!

I see why. On your second line of code of ADCS, you have SEND(9prgmZLOAD). For some reason my calc has never worked with that syntax before.

Doors CS, and the Send9 command are for the 83, not 83 plus. But the 83 plus of Doors CS will come soon, right?

Is there any line of coding that I can replace Send9 with? And if not, how am I supposed to test your device? Do you have a test program besides your include files to go along with it?

Here's a pic of the assembled adapter of mine:

you can replace Send9 with Asm(, but that doesn't work: TI 83 asm programs are different from 83+ programs.

You'll have to wait for kermmartian to finish Doors CS, or buy a TI-83

.... or write your own program! Laughing

I don't know ASM... yet. Smile

Is it possible to make a Keyhook thingy or something that recognizes mouse input as regular arrow keypresses in the TI-OS and BASIC programs?
