DVR
OSWORD &51 (81) - Get maximum heap block size (DVR)
On entry:
XY=heap handle, points to heap block
On exit:
XY+0..1=size of the largest block available.
If the call failed XY+0..1 is set to zero, C is also set.
CDFS

On entry:
XY?0 = seconds 0-59
XY?1 = minutes 0-59
XY?2 = hours 0-23
XY?3 = day of week 1-7, 1=Sunday
XY?4 = date of month 1-31
XY?5 = month 1-12
XY?6 = year 00-99
HKSET
OSWORD &51 (81) - HKSET Support (SEHK)
On entry:
XY?0 = command
XY+1.. = any parameters
On exit:
XY?0 = result:
&00=ok
&FF=signal fault
&FE=no acknowledge from hardware
&FD=no printer
XY+1.. = any additional returned data
Commands
1 - read the news line
On entry:
XY?0 =&01
XY+1..2=address to read up to 80 characters + cr
On exit:
XY?0=result: 0=ok, &FF=signal fault, &FE=no ack from hardware
2 - read a chinese character definition
On entry:
XY?0 =&02
XY!1 =address in I/O processor to read 32 bytes
XY?5 =&80 for absolute ROM address, &00 for character number
XY?6 =byte 0
XY?7 =byte 1
On exit:
XY?0=result: &00=ok
&FF=no character ROM found
&F0=character ROM 0 not found
&0F=character ROM 1 not found
&E0=number in byte 0 and byte 1 out of range
3 - get bytes from a page in remote memory
On entry:
XY?0 =&03
XY!1 =data address in I/O processor
XY?5 =&00 for teletext page, &80 for stock page
XY?6 =Handle
XY?7 =Start Row (0-24)
XY?8 =Start Column (0-79 for stock page, 0-39 for teletext page)
XY!9 =Number of bytes to read
0-&7CF for stock page, 0-&3E7 for teletext page
On exit:
XY?0=result: 0=ok, &FF=signal fault, &FE=no ack from hardware
4 - test remote hardware
On entry:
XY?0 =&04
On exit:
XY?0=result: 0=ok, otherwise a bitmap of the chapters with errors
in, b0=error in chapter 1, b7=error in chapter 8.
5 - print stock page to screen or printer
On entry:
XY?0 =&05
XY?1 = &80=screen only, &C0=screen and printer
XY?2 = Handle
On exit:
XY?0=result: 0=ok, &FF=signal fault, &FE=no ack from hardware
&FD=no printer
6 - get new stock/teletext page (slow)
On entry:
XY?0 =&06
XY?1 =&00 for teletext page, &80 for stock page
For a teletext page:
XY?2 = Magazine (0-&7)
XY?3 = Page Tens (0-&F)
XY?4 = Page Units (0-&F)
XY?5 = Hours Tens (0-&3) Here and below is
XY?6 = Hours Units (0-&F) the Time Extension
XY?7 = Minutes Tens (0-&7) Usually fill
XY?8 = Minutes Units (0-&F) with zeros
For a stock page:
XY?2 = LS Byte Stock Code (BCD)
XY?3 = MS Byte Stock Code (BCD)
eg to get stock 16 XY?2=&16, XY?3=0
Stock pages are numbered 0 to 399
On exit:
XY?0=result: &FF=signal fault, &FE=no ack from hardware
otherwise, handle to refer to the page
in future calls. 0=no more handles.
7 - get new stock/teletext page (fast)
On entry:
XY?0 =&07
XY?1 =&00 for teletext page, &80 for stock page
For a teletext page:
XY?2 = Magazine (0-&7)
XY?3 = Page Tens (0-&F)

XY?5 = Hours Tens (0-&3) Here and below is
XY?6 = Hours Units (0-&F) the Time Extension
XY?7 = Minutes Tens (0-&7) Usually fill
XY?8 = Minutes Units (0-&F) with zeros
For a stock page:
XY?2 = LS Byte Stock Code (BCD)
XY?3 = MS Byte Stock Code (BCD)
eg to get stock 16 XY?2=&16, XY?3=0
Stock pages are numbered 0 to 399
On exit:
XY?0=result: &FF=signal fault, &FE=no ack from hardware
otherwise, handle to refer to the page
in future calls. 0=no more handles.
8 - enter HKSET in I/O processor
On entry:
XY?0 =&08
On exit:
No exit, as language is entered. This is an incorrect way of entering
a language, and this call should not be used. A language should always
