- Re: Error in Z100 KERMIT
-
- August Treubig of Middle South Services discovered a bug in the Z100
- version of KERMIT. It caused MS-DOS to crash. The fix is in the GETBAUD
- routine. Add the lines marked with ";***" below in the Z100 system
- dependent source file, MSXZ10.ASM:
-
- GETBAUD PROC NEAR
- mov bx,ds
- mov es,bx
- mov bx,offset auxconf
- mov ah,chr_status
- mov al,chr_sfgc ; Status function get config info
- push di ;*** save this
- call bios_auxfunc
- pop di ;*** restore
- mov ch,0
- mov cl,auxconf.cfbaud
- mov bp,portval
- mov ds:[bp].baud,cx
- ret
- GETBAUD ENDP
-
- This fix has been added to the MSXZ10.ASM source in the Kermit distribution
- area, but the .BOO file is still based on the unfixed source (as of version
- 2.28, 7 June 1985).
