; this sample shows the use of emu8086.inc 
; this is library of predefined macros and procedures for easy input/output. 

name "inc"

include "emu8086.inc"

; it is also possible to just copy and paste ready procedures from emu8086.inc 
; and use them in your program, this way it is possible to step through original 
; source code. 


; note, that some declarations of "emu8086.inc" 
; are macro procedure declarations, and you 
; have to use "define_..." macro somewhere 
; in your program if you want to use 
; these functions: 

;   call scan_num 
;   call print_string 
;   call pthis 
;   call get_string 
;   call clear_screen 
;   call print_num 
;   call print_num_uns 

; you can define all these procedures in your 
; source code, but compilation time may slow down 
; sufficiently because of that, only declare 
; functions that you plan to use: 


;   define_scan_num 
;   define_print_string 
;   define_pthis 
;   define_get_string 
;   define_clear_screen 
;   define_print_num 
;   define_print_num_uns 

;  the above declarations should be made in 
;  your code once only! better somewhere 
;  in the end of your file, but before "end" 
;  directive. you can also declare them 
;  in the beginning of the file, but it should 
;  be after "org 100h" directive (for com files).

;================================= 
; here we define the functions 
; from emu8086.inc 

; scan_num reads a 
; number from the user and stores 
; it in cx register: 
define_scan_num

; print_string prints a null 
; terminated string, the address 
; of the string is in ds:si  
define_print_string

; print_num prints a signed 
; number in ax. 
; (print_num requires the declaration 
; of print_num_uns). 
; print_num_uns prints an unsigned 
; number in ax: 

define_print_num
define_print_num_uns
