- Introduction to ZSLIB
-
-
- ZSLIB provides a large number of low-level assembly language tools to
- handle most routine date and time and file stamp tasks under ZSDOS.
- Several routines for CP/M Plus have also been added to aid in maintaining
- program compatibility with that system. In addition, ZSLIB provides a
- number of routines supplementing those in SYSLIB for number conversions and
- output; string input, manipulation, and output; command line parsing; and
- video highlighting.
-
- CAUTION: All but one of these routines are compatible with earlier
- versions of ZSLIB (before 3.0). The former DOSTYP routine, however, has
- been renamed BDOSTYP. Its global DOSVER byte has been renamed BDOSVER.
- Programs that call this routine directly will have to edited to reflect the
- new names. The names of a few other routines have been changed, but the
- old entry points have been maintained for compatibility.
-
- Using ZSLIB Routines
-
-
- Most ZSLIB modules call SYSLIB routines, requiring that SYSLIB be searched
- by the linker after it searches ZSLIB.
-
- The GCOMNAM module calls Z3LIB routines, requiring that Z3LIB be searched
- by the linker after it searches ZSLIB, but before it searches SYSLIB.
-
- The HV-series for highlighted video use the global ENVPTR from Z3LIB. That
- variable is initialized by Z3LIB's Z3INIT routine. Z3INIT must be called
- by your program before any calls to HVON, HVOFF, HVPRINT, HVPSTR, HVTINIT,
- or HVDINIT.
