    Hi all,

    Is there an SWI equivalent to *status ?

    Thanks
    Paul

    From BASIC
    OSCLI "status"
    from C
    system("status")
    or
    OS_CLI("status")
    ....
    This executes a string passed to it as if it has been typed in the CLI.


    Happy new year everybody.

    Perhaps what you are looking for are OS_Byte 161 (&A1) and 162 (&A2) which allow you to read and write the non-volatile CMOS memory. This is where
    the settings shown by *Status are stored.
