AddKBInt()

Synopsis

APTR AddKBInt(
         APTR intRoutine,
         APTR intData );

Function

register a callback that is called whenever a keyboard
input event occurs.

Inputs

intRoutine - the routine to invoke every vblank. This routine should
             be as short as possible to minimize its effect on overall
             system performance.
intData - data passed to the routine in register A1. If more than one
          long word of data is required this should be a pointer to
          a structure that contains the required data.

AddTimerInt()

Synopsis

APTR AddTimerInt(
         APTR intRoutine,
         APTR intData );

Function

Add a callback function that should be executed every time the timer
interrupt triggers.

The timer will be allocated, but not configured or enabled - StartIntTimer()
must be called to initalize the correct paramaters.

Inputs

intRoutine  --  the callback function to invoke each vertical blank
intData     --  data passed to the callback function

Result

A handle used to manipulate the interrupt or NULL if the call failed.

Bugs

This function is unimplemented.

AddVBlankInt()

Synopsis

APTR AddVBlankInt(
         APTR intRoutine,
         APTR intData );

Function

Add a callback function that should be executed every vertical blank.
If your program can exit without rebooting the machine, RemVBlankInt()
has to be called prior to exiting.
    Only one interrupt routine may be added; always check the return
value of this function in case some other program already has used this
function.

Inputs

intRoutine  --  the callback function to invoke each vertical blank
intData     --  data passed to the callback function

Result

A handle used to manipulate the interrupt or NULL if the call failed.

ElapsedTime()

Synopsis

ULONG ElapsedTime(
         struct EClockVal * context );

Bugs

This function is unimplemented.

GetKey()

Synopsis

ULONG GetKey();

Function

returns the currently pressed 'qualifier' and 'key' combination.

Inputs

none

Result

0xFF if no key is pressed otherwise it returns the actual key in the low word,
and qualifier in the high word -:

'qualifier'     key equivalent
LLKB_LSHIFT     Left Shift
LLKB_RSHIFT     Rigt Shift
LLKB_CAPSLOCK   Caps Lock
LLKB_CONTROL    Control
LLKB_LALT       Left Alt
LLKB_RALT       Right Alt
LLKB_LAMIGA     Left Amiga
LLKB_RAMIGA     Right Amiga

GetLanguageSelection()

Synopsis

ULONG GetLanguageSelection();

QueryKeys()

Synopsis

VOID QueryKeys(
         struct KeyQuery * queryArray,
         UBYTE arraySize );

Bugs

This function is unimplemented.

ReadJoyPort()

Synopsis

ULONG ReadJoyPort(
         ULONG port );

Notes

This function isn't implemented on all platforms.

RemKBInt()

Synopsis

VOID RemKBInt(
         APTR intHandle );

Function

remove a keyboard interrupt previously registerd
with addkbint.

RemTimerInt()

Synopsis

VOID RemTimerInt(
         APTR intHandle );

Bugs

This function is unimplemented.

RemVBlankInt()

Synopsis

VOID RemVBlankInt(
         APTR intHandle );

Function

Remove a vertical blank interrupt routine previously added by a call to
AddVBlankInt().

Inputs

intHandle  --  return value from AddVBlankInt(); may be NULL in which case
               this function is a no-op.

SetJoyPortAttrsA()

Synopsis

BOOL SetJoyPortAttrsA(
         ULONG portNumber,
         struct TagItem * tagList );

BOOL SetJoyPortAttrs(
         ULONG portNumber,
         TAG tag, ... );

StartTimerInt()

Synopsis

VOID StartTimerInt(
         APTR intHandle,
         ULONG timeInterval,
         BOOL continuous );

Bugs

This function is unimplemented.

StopTimerInt()

Synopsis

VOID StopTimerInt(
         APTR intHandle );

Bugs

This function is unimplemented.

SystemControlA()

Synopsis

ULONG SystemControlA(
         struct TagItem * tags );

ULONG SystemControl(
         TAG tag, ... );

Bugs

This functions implementation is incomplete.
