- Hi
-
- I am trying to write program which reads the keyboard buffer, before the
- command.com interrupter does.
- In other words
- I want to write a program that if certain keywords are typed in it will go
- and do some function.
- otherwise it must act as normal.
-
- eg
- enter CLS
- I want it to first do the normal clearscreen
- but afterwards it must print my name and time and other tings on the top
- of the screen.
- ( I will write the program that prints my name and other things )
- ( But I need to know how to link in the keyboard interrupt so )
- ( that when it reads CLS if first does CLS and then comes and )
- ( executes my program. )
-
- OR
- enter TIME
- I want it to ask me if I want to change the time or just display it.
- THEN it must go and do the NORMAL time function.
- ( same applies here I will write the program but how do I )
- ( link it into the keyboard interrupt )
-
- Does anyone know if this is possible ???
-
- PLEASE I HAVE BEEN TRYING FOR +/- 4 mths. BUT no-one I have asked knows
- what to do or even how to HELP
