Synopsis

Official Name: Mon

BCALL Address: 401E

Starts the system monitor. The system monitor will take over the system, and report events to the application via the monitor vectors. The application must set it’s own monitor vectors with AppInit before calling Mon. Control of the application will never be returned from Mon.

Inputs

  • AppAllowContext, (IY + APIFlg) = 1 to allow Mon to pass context keys, like
  • kYequ to the cxMain routine.
  • CurLock, (IY + curFlags) = 1 to lock the cursor off

Outputs

  • none

Registers Destroyed

  •  ??

Comments

The system NEVER returns from this B_CALL. The programmer should find alternative methods of regaining control and exiting such as hooks, cxMain, etc.
