POP-CAL Leo Forrest
Purpose: Pops up a calendar window for any month from January, 1583 to
December, 9999.
Format: POP-CAL (loads command into memory)
Alt-C Toggles calendar on/off
Right-Arrow Advance one month
Left-Arrow Back one month
Up-Arrow Advance one year
Down-Arrow Back one year
Remarks: POP-CAL is a memory-resident utility and should be loaded into memory
before you call up any applications programs. Normally, you would
simply enter POP-CAL as one line in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
POP-CAL takes the current month and year as its initial value. It
subsequently remembers your last-used calendar, facilitating repeated
references.
Notes: You can use DEBUG to change the default Alt-C toggle key by replacing
the Alt-key scan code value at offset :014B. The default value is
2E, which will appear, followed by a period, in response to the E
command shown below. Enter only the new scan code, not the 2E.
Thus, to change the program to use Alt-Q (scan code 10) you would
enter:
DEBUG POP-CAL.COM
E 14b 10
W
Q
The hex values for the various scan codes are given in Appendix E of
the IBM BASIC manual (3.0) and also in the "Scan Code Value Table" in
connection with SLASHBAR.COM, elsewhere in this manual.
While POP-CAL has been tested for compatibility with a number of
other memory-resident programs, there is always the possibility of a
conflict with other TSR (Terminate-Stay-Resident) programs.
