- POP-CAL Leo Forrest
-
- Purpose: Pops up a calendar window for any month from January, 1583 to
- December, 9999.
-
- Format: POP-CAL (loads command into memory)
- Alt-C Toggles calendar on/off
- Right-Arrow Advance one month
- Left-Arrow Back one month
- Up-Arrow Advance one year
- Down-Arrow Back one year
-
- Remarks: POP-CAL is a memory-resident utility and should be loaded into memory
- before you call up any applications programs. Normally, you would
- simply enter POP-CAL as one line in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
-
- POP-CAL takes the current month and year as its initial value. It
- subsequently remembers your last-used calendar, facilitating repeated
- references.
-
- Notes: You can use DEBUG to change the default Alt-C toggle key by replacing
- the Alt-key scan code value at offset :014B. The default value is
- 2E, which will appear, followed by a period, in response to the E
- command shown below. Enter only the new scan code, not the 2E.
- Thus, to change the program to use Alt-Q (scan code 10) you would
- enter:
- DEBUG POP-CAL.COM
- E 14b 10
- W
- Q
-
- The hex values for the various scan codes are given in Appendix E of
- the IBM BASIC manual (3.0) and also in the "Scan Code Value Table" in
- connection with SLASHBAR.COM, elsewhere in this manual.
-
- While POP-CAL has been tested for compatibility with a number of
- other memory-resident programs, there is always the possibility of a
- conflict with other TSR (Terminate-Stay-Resident) programs.
