title 'HELLO --- print Hello on terminal'
;
; HELLO utility to demonstrate various parts
; of a functional assembly language program,
; use of segments, and a PC-DOS function call.
;
; Ray Duncan, September 1983
;
;show use of some EQUATES:
cr equ 0dh ;ASCII carriage return
lf equ 0ah ;ASCII line feed
;
;
;begin the "Code" segment
;containing executable
;machine code
cseg segment para public 'CODE'
;
assume cs:cseg,ds:dseg,ss:stack
;
print proc far ;actual program code
;is completely contained
;in the "procedure" named
;"PRINT".
;
push ds ;save DS:0000 on stack
xor ax,ax ;for final exit to PC-DOS.
push ax
;set Data Segment Register
;to point to the Data Segment
;of this program, so that the
;message we want to print is
;addressable.
mov ax,seg dseg
mov ds,ax
;now put the offset of the
;message text into DX,
mov dx,offset message
;now DS:DX specifies the
;full address of the message.
mov ah,9 ;use the PC-DOS function 9
int 21h ;to print the string.
;
ret ;now return to PC-DOS using
;the addresses we pushed on
;the stack at entry.
;
print endp ;end of the "procedure"
;named "PRINT"
;
cseg ends ;end of the code segment
;containing executable
;program.
;
;now we define a data segment
;containing our program's
;constants and variables.
dseg segment para 'DATA'
;
message db cr,lf,'Hello!',cr,lf,'$'
;
dseg ends
;
;lastly, we define a Stack
;Segment which contains
;a scratch area of memory
;for use by our program's stack
stack segment para stack 'STACK'
;allow 64 bytes in this case
db 64 dup (?)
;
stack ends
;the final "End" statement
;signals the end of this
;program source file, and gives
;the starting address of
;the executable program
end print
