DOCUMENTATION FOR CURSOR.ASM

     CURSOR.ASM  is  a very short assembly language file  that  will 
change  the cursor on KayPro Computers with the 6545 CRT  controller 
chip.   This is all the "-84" and "X" series.  The method used is to 
change  the  cursor  refresh rate multiplier.   Several  values  are 
possible; see the table below.

USAGE:
     1)  CURSOR
     2)  CURSOR x

     1)   To  just use the default value simply type 'CURSOR'.   The 
          cursor  will  be  set to whatever  you  have  defined  the 
          default to be according to the table below.

     2)   If  you  specify an argument (ANY argument),  you will  be 
          offered  a  menu of all the possible  choices.   You  must 
          select  one  of the offered choices to exit  the  program.  
          Note  that  you can select the stock blinking  block  from 
          this menu.


PATCHING THE DEFAULT:

     The  actual default byte sent to the CRT is located at 0103H in 
the  .COM  file.   You can patch in a different default  byte  value 
according the the table below to get a different effect.  Use either 
DDT or EDFILE.   EDFILE is much easier.  If you use DDT, the correct 
command  to save the final image is SAVE 2 CURSORN.COM.  Then  erase 
CURSOR.COM and rename CURSORN.COM to CURSOR.COM.   If you have ZCPR, 
you can save only three records as follows:

     SAVE 3 CURSOR.COM S

Note  that  the system will prompt you for permission to  erase  the 
original  version  of  CURSOR.COM if you  are  using  ZCPR,  but  if 
CURSOR.COM exists with CP/M's CCP, you will get an error.
