{* WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING In order to use the Intr procedure in Turbo Pascal you must be familiar with interrupts and have access to a technical reference manual. The following program uses the Intr function in Turbo to get the time. Registers have to be set correctly according to the DOS technical reference manual before the function is called. The program simply returns the time in a string at the top of the screen.*} program TimeInterrupt; type TimeString = string[8]; function time: TimeString; type regpack = record ax,bx,cx,dx,bp,di,si,ds,es,flags: integer; end; var recpack: regpack; {assign record} ah,al,ch,cl,dh: byte; hour,min,sec: string[2]; begin ah := $2c; {initialize correct registers} with recpack do begin ax := ah shl 8 + al; end; intr($21,recpack); {call interrupt} with recpack do begin str(cx shr 8,hour); {convert to string} str(cx mod 256,min); { " } str(dx shr 8,sec); { " } end; time := hour+':'+min+':'+sec; end; begin writeln(time); end.
