1- Usage 2- Notes
HOLDZ is a timer routine which delays the amount of time entered before
returning to ZCPR3. It is most useful when used in a command script (ALIAS,
ARUNZ, ZEX, or SUB file) to simply schedule the execution of programs at a
later time.
:1
Usage: A0:SYSTEM>HOLDZ hh:mm:ss[;FURTHER;COMMANDS]
or A0:SYSTEM>HOLDZ mm:ss[;FURTHER;COMMANDS]
or A0:SYSTEM>HOLDZ ss[;FURTHER;COMMANDS]
where 'hh' indicates hours; 'mm' indicates minutes; 'ss' indicates seconds
:2
HOLDZ Notes:
a. Alternatively, 2 digits need not be entered if only 1 digit is
necessary, e.g., 'HOLDZ 1:2:3' is the same as 'HOLDZ 01:02:03'.
b. If any key is pressed during the delay, HOLDZ execution will be
terminated and execution of pending command(s) proceeds.
c. Ctrl-C will erase $$$.SUB from A0: and "A$:" and lower flow control
level to 'No Pending IF State'. Non Ctrl-C abort sets the Program
error flag to 255 (0FFh), otherwise command line proceeds unimpeded.
d. HOLDZ gets the processor speed from Z3ENV+2Bh and assigns the
appropriate constant (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 8 Mhz). Its accuracy is
limited by the fact that Z3 uses single-byte integers to peg CPU
speed.
