TesSeRact RAM-RESIDENT PROGRAM INTERFACE

AX = 5453h
BX = subfunction
00h installation check
CX = 0000h
DS:SI -> 8-char blank-padded name (see #02840)

Return:
AX = FFFFh installed CX = ID number of already-installed copy AX = anything else, not installed CX = ID number for TSR when installed 01h get user parameters CX = TSR ID number

Return:
AX = status 0000h successful ES:BX -> user parameter block (see #02841) nonzero failed 02h check if hotkey in use CL = scan code of hot key (see #00006)

Return:
AX = FFFFh hot key conflicts with another TSR otherwise safe to use the hotkey 03h replace default critical error handler CX = TSR ID number DS:SI -> new routine for INT 24h

Return:
AX = nonzero, unable to install new handler 04h get internal data area CX = TSR ID number

Return:
AX = status 0000h successful ES:BX -> TSR's internal data area (see #02842) nonzero, TSR not found 05h set multiple hot keys CX = TSR ID number DL = number of additional hot keys to allocate DS:SI -> table of hot keys BYTE hotkey scan code (see #00006) BYTE hotkey shift state BYTE flag value to pass to TSR (nonzero)

Return:
AX = nonzero, unable to install hot keys 06h - 0Fh reserved 10h enable TSR CX = TSR ID number

Return:
AX = nonzero, unable to enable 11h disable TSR CX = TSR ID number

Return:
AX = nonzero, unable to disable 12h unload TSR CX = TSR ID number

Return:
AX = nonzero, invalid TSR number

Note: If any interrupts used by TSR have been grabbed by another TSR, the TesSeRact routines will wait until it is safe to remove the indicated TSR from memory 13h restart TSR CX = TSR ID number of TSR which was unloaded but is still in memory

Return:
AX = nonzero, unable to restart TSR 14h get status word CX = TSR ID number

Return:
AX = FFFFh invalid ID number = other, successful BX = bit flags 15h set status word CX = TSR ID number DX = new bit flags

Return:
AX = nonzero, unable to set status word 16h get INDOS state at popup CX = TSR ID number

Return:
AX = 0000h successful BX = value of INDOS flag 17h - 1Fh reserved 20h call user procedure CX = TSR ID number ES:DI -> user-defined data

Return:
AX = 0000h successful 21h stuff keystrokes into keyboard buffer CX = TSR ID number DL = speed 00h stuff keystrokes only when buffer is empty 01h stuff up to four keystrokes per clock tick 02h stuff up to 15 keystrokes per clock tick DH = scan code flag if zero, buffer contains alternating ASCII and scan codes if nonzero, buffer contains only ASCII codes SI = number of keystrokes ES:DI -> buffer to stuff

Return:
AX = 0000h success F0F0h user aborted with ^C or ^Break other unable to stuff keystrokes 22h (v1.10) trigger popup CX = TSR ID number

Return:
AX = 0000h success, TSR will either pop up or beep to indicate that it is unable to pop up nonzero invalid ID number 23h (v1.10) invoke TSR's background function CX = TSR ID number

Return:
AX = 0000h success FFFFh not safe to call background function nonzero invalid ID number 24h - 2Fh reserved

Notes: Borland's THELP.COM popup help system for Turbo Pascal and Turbo C (versions 1.x and 2.x only) fully supports the TesSeRact API, as do the SWAP?? programs by Innovative Data Concepts.. AVATAR.SYS supports functions 00h and 01h (only the first three fields of the user parameter block) using the name "AVATAR "
