      From: assemblywizard@gmail.com              ghpolo:              He meant to impress you with pascal accessing the registers directly,       with an "assembly klude" pascal is capable of (manipulating registers       and int 10, int 21 calls, etc...)              You would have to understand assembly language to be able to use that       effectively--it was just an ego thing on his part--it would only       obfuscate things for most beginners... you can choose to ignore it and       go on with pascal...              Warmest regards,       John              "ghpolo" |
