As somebody know, from the past month, I have been inviting to the programmers to be subscribed to the MNBIOS e-mail list, (you can subscribe from
http://usuarios.arnet.com.ar/flyguille/EsList.htm , this list is only for chat about MNBIOS.
But, the reason of the invitation is for tell to all the possible ones interested than approximately at the end of next week, I will begin to comment the source code of the user's interface (file MSXCOMMAND.EXEC) as a tutorial.
Seeing based on real code, routine by routine like one makes to create the structure of the program, the console of commands, commands like TYPE, DIR, REN, that is to say, will learn how to open files, to access to its content, to rename it, to erase it, to list, like one reacts on the change event of the system multitasking.
But, mainly they will learn to how creating their own interface of the user, since the file "MSXCOMMAND.EXEC" it requires to initialize structures and to install drivers (CON / PRN) that a common application would not usually make never. As creating the visible and interactive part of the system multitasking (the window multitasking).
So, a heap of things that they won't possibly be able to know later.
greetings, flyguille
