MODEL small
IDEAL
STACK 200h ; this is more than enough stack
CODESEG
start:
;
; this test stub scrolls the window at (4,3)-(22,68) left 9 columns,
; filling in with spaces of attribute white on black (07)
;
mov al,9 ; number of columns to scroll
mov bh,07 ; attribute to use for blanked chars
mov ch,4 ; row of upper left hand corner of window
mov cl,3 ; col of upper left hand corner of window

; ScrollLeft
;
; PURPOSE: scrolls a rectangular region of a text screen (window) to the
; left by a variable number of columns
;
;
; INPUTS: AL = number of columns to scroll (if zero, no effect)
; BH = attribute to use for blanked characters
; CH,CL = row, col for upper left hand corner of window
; DH,DL = row, col for lower right hand corner of window
;
; NOTES: upper left hand corner of screen (home) is (0,0)
; video adapter is checked to see if it's in text mode
; screen dimensions are taken from BIOS data
; calling sequence is nearly identical to BIOS scroll routine
; display pages supported
; dual monitors supported
; MDA/CGA/EGA/VGA supported
;
; RETURNS: On error, Carry flag set, AX contains error number
; otherwise carry is clear, AX contains 0
;
; Error codes: 0 - no error
; -1 - some error occurred
;
