   Spec is to show the day of week as a literal string;   
      
   given these DOS functions (maybe others?)   
      
   get daynum: DOS has int 0x21, fn 0x2A which returns al as 0-6 (Sun-Sat)   
      
   print: int 21, fn 2 with dl=char   
     or int 21, fn 9 with dx pointing to a string terminated with a $ (x24)   
      
   terminate with return code: int 0x21 fn 0x4C, code in al   
      
      
   Write shortest programs to show day string of the current day;   
      
   1) full string e.g. "Monday", "Saturday"   
   2) 3 letter e.g. "Mon", "Sat"   
   3) 2 letter e.g. "Mo", "Sa"   
      
      
   My current shortests are:   
   1) 67   
   2) 49   
   3) 40   
      
   --   
   Bah, and indeed, Humbug.
