- "S.COM" is an example of the use of SAM76 in autorun
- mode of operation. In effect "S.COM" is nothing
- more than (in this case ILRAW primed with CPMSETL)
- a version of the SAM76 interpreter which has been
- reloaded prior to saving with a script written to
- recognize a command string and act on it.
-
- Procedure is as follows:
-
- 1. Bring in a copy of SAM76, either through the
- sequence ZLRAW/ILRAW and CPMSETL/ZAPSETL or if you
- prefer just S.
-
- 2. Bring the file "G.SAM" thus:
-
- %bf,g.sam/=
-
- 3. Examine the text "G" that has been brought in
- and desirably analyze it - use %vt,G/=.
-
- 4. Execute G thus: %G/=
-
- 5. This will take you back to the operating system
- and now save the file thus: SAVE 63 xxx.COM.
-
- Use of xxx.COM allows you to specify a command string
- which is examined by "G" in the following manner:
-
- xxx yyy drive
-
- where xxx is the name of the file you saved,
- and yyy is a file (yyy.sam) which contains the script
- you wish to invoke, the first of which must be named
- upper case "A" (at least as long as you do not change G).
- and drive is the drive number on which yyy.sam exists.
-
- If you omit drive, then drive 0 is assumed, if you omit
- yyy then you will get SAM76 in its normal form.
