- That was a bit long for what you needed to do. Here's what I got:
-
- program capslock;
- {This program is design to test the procedure capslock_on.}
-
- procedure capslock_on(caps:boolean);
- Assembler;
- ASM
- push ds ; Save the data segment
- mov al, caps ; Load in the boolean value of caps
- mov bx, 0040h ; These two lines adjust the data segment
- mov ds, bx ; to 40h
- mov bx, 17h ; Point to address 17h
- mov ch, [bx] ; Get the byte located there
- mov cl, 6h ; Move 6 into cl
- shl al, cl ; Shift the bit in al 6 bits to the left
- and ch, 10111111b ; Reset the 6th bit at our memory location
- or al, ch ; Stick in the caps bit
- mov [bx], al ; Put the new byte back
- pop ds ; Restore the data segment
- end;
-
- begin
- capslock_on(true);
- capslock_on(false);
- end.
-
- You see, there are a host of byte that contain information like whether or not
- the capslock is on. This program edits that information directly, and is
- hence a lot smaller and easier to use. Hope this helps.
