This is a continuation of the SDK topic. I thought since I have changed from learning with the SDK to the 28 day tutorial, a new topic name was in order.
Besides that, the other topic didn't seem to want to post my new question.
If anyone can answer the following, please do. I appreciate y'all:
In day 2 of the 28 day tutorial, he writes
>>N.B. ROM calls are also called Entry Points and System Routines. The >>name of a ROM Call always begins with an underscore.
What does "N.B." mean? Did I miss something? Also, I wondered if it is just
TASM that needs the underscore? I recall that the sdk used just plain "bcall".
Also, in the TI.inc file, there is a command "BR_call". What is the difference between that and the 'normal' "b_call"? |

Hello
N.B. means 'note'; i don't know what the latin words are for it but it means note this
Yes i was a ZMASM person and recently converted to a TASM person and the ZMASM didn't require the underscore or the brackets
ZMASM: B_CALL ClrLCDFull
TASM: B_CALL(_ClrLCDFull)
With the BR_CALL i don't know hopefully someone else has the answer.
Hope that helps
