; *** Blockdev routines ***
|
||||||
|
;
|
||||||
|
; There are 4 blockdev routines that can be defined by would-be block devices
|
||||||
|
; and they follow these specifications:
|
||||||
|
;
|
||||||
|
; GetC:
|
||||||
|
; Reads one character from selected device and returns its value in A.
|
||||||
|
; Sets Z according to whether read was successful: Set if successful, unset
|
||||||
|
; if not.
|
||||||
|
;
|
||||||
|
; A successful GetC should advance the "pointer" of the device (if there is one)
|
||||||
|
; by one byte so that a subsequent GetC will read the next char. Unsuccessful
|
||||||
|
; reads generally mean that we reached EOF.
|
||||||
|
;
|
||||||
|
;
|
||||||
|
; PutC:
|
||||||
|
; Writes character in A in current position in the selected device. Sets Z
|
||||||
|
; according to whether the operation was successful.
|
||||||
|
;
|
||||||
|
; A successful PutC should advance the "pointer" of the device (if there is one)
|
||||||
|
; by one byte so that the next PutC places the next char next to this one.
|
||||||
|
; Unsuccessful writes generally mean that we reached EOF.
|
||||||
|
;
|
||||||
|
; Seek:
|
||||||
|
; Place device "pointer" at position dictated by HL.
|
||||||
|
;
|
||||||
|
; Tell:
|
||||||
|
; Return the position of the "pointer" in HL
