Re: [N8VEM-S100:4985] Re: Prop I/O board - Cursor control and special functions

The VGA_Highrest_Text object already had support for the cursor positioning, so I don't think any changes should be needed to the Propeller assembly part of the setup. The IBM-like BIOS Int 10h code needs to send a command to the Propeller Spin side of the PropIO code that causes it to update the "hub" shared variable with the cursor location in it. The assembly code should do the rest automatically..... Although I'm not sure how the cursor is handled in DOS Int 21h, as long as that builds on/uses the cursor positioning in Int 10h it should work. Of course any program that tries to directly access the IBM MDA/CGA/etc video hardware won't work at all.....

Be warned Frank, the Propeller code is quiet complex. It was written by somebody that clearly was very familiar with the Propeller setup.
It’s from the wildly used library on the Parallax web site.
