AEDIT$–ASCII Image Composition Editing Package
Example 2
LINELEN $EQU 33 . Length of ASCII data area
$(4)
LINE $RES LINELEN . Data area for ASCII image
PACKET A$EDITPK LINELEN,LINE ‘DFT’,2 ‘TFT’, 3 . AEDIT$ packet
In example 2, the MASM procedure A$EDITPKT generates the AEDIT$ packet for ASCII
editing with date and time formats. AEDIT$ stores the generated ASCII string in the 33word
data area at location LINE. AEDIT$ uses date format index 2 and time format
index 3. AEDIT$ uses the default values for the msg, fps, fpr, dpc, spc, and separatorcharacter
parameters.
Example 3
BUFLEN $EQU 8 . Length of buffer for f-p number
$(2)
FPNUM $RES BUFLEN . Buffer for floating-point number
FPPKT A$EDITP BUFLEN,FPNUM ‘FPR’,0 ‘DPC’,’D’ . AEDIT$ packet
In example 3, the MASM procedure A$EDITPKT generates the AEDIT$ packet at location
FPPKT. AEDIT$ stores the generated ASCII strings in the eight-word buffer at location
FPNUM. AEDIT$ does not round floating-point numbers and uses a separator character
of 'D'. AEDIT$ uses the default values for the msg, fps, spc, date-format, time-format,
and separator-character parameters.
4.2. Calling Sequence
There are several categories of AEDIT$ routines.
• General-purpose editing routines (see 4.2.1)
• Floating-point editing routines (see 4.2.2)
• Time and date editing routines (see 4.2.3)
• System standard format date and time editing routines (see 4.2.4)
The calling program calls the AEDIT$ routines with MASM PROCs from the element
AEDIT$P. Each routine has a corresponding PROC. The PROCs can call either the
relocatable or common bank version of AEDIT$. The relocatable version is called with an
LMJ on X11 to the relocatable entry point. The common bank version is called with an
IBJ$ on X11 to the common bank entry point or an LMJ on X11 to the common bank
entry point if the Auto Switch method is used.
