I recently attempted to run pdcom under BASIC09 but it wouldn't work.
I found that I am missing a procedure called syscall(). Can someone please
post the source?
thanks.

Can someone please >post the source? Carlos - The 'syscall' procedure is a subroutine for BASIC09 that was written in assembly. In essence, it allows you to stuff a set of pseudo registers and make a system call (I$write, f$crc, etc.) from within BASIC09. Microware (R. Doggett, I believe) wrote the initial one, and placed it in the public domain. It's available on Compuserve (and I'm sure the other services too..) and the OS9 USERS GROUP LIBRARY. Coco3 Level II os9 has it on the distribution disk. If you can't get a copy from an alternate source, drop me a line and I'll mail you one. -- Pete Lyall Usenet: {trwrb, scgvaxd, ihnp4, voder, vortex}!wlbr!pete Compuserve: 76703,4230 (OS9 Forum Sysop) OS9 (home): (805)-985-0632 (24hr./1200 baud) Phone: (818)-706-5693 (work 9-5 PST) EATON Corp, IMSD, 31717 La Tienda Dr., Westlake Village, Ca. 91359 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
