REM PROGRAM DIALOG
REM A PROGRAM TO AUTOMATICALLY LOG IN AND EXTRACT DATA FROM
REM A DATABASE SYSTEM
REM
REM WRITTEN BY E. VERNON BUCK, SAN LORENZO, CA. (415) 276-4607
REM VERSION 1.1, DEC. 31, 1985.
REM
REM DIALOG READS "INSTRUCTIONS" FROM AN "INSTRUCTION FILE". THIS FILE
REM IS PRODUCED BY ANY EDITOR OR WORD PROCESSOR. THE INSTRUCTION
REM FILE TELLS THE PROGRAM HOW TO CONDUCT A "DIALOG" WITH THE
REM REMOTE (OR "HOST") COMPUTER. THE INSTRUCTIONS TELL THE PROGRAM
REM WHAT MESSAGES TO SEND, AND WHAT MESSAGES TO RECEIVE FROM THE
REM HOST. THE PROGRAM CAN ALSO MAKE SOME
REM SIMPLE DECISIONS (BRANCHING) BASED ON THE CONTENT OF MESSAGES
REM RECEIVED FROM THE HOST. THE DIALOG IS DISPLAYED ON THE 
REM TERMINAL AS IT HAPPENS, AND (OPTIONALLY) RECORDED
REM IN A "LOG" FILE.
REM
REM THE INSTRUCTIONS AVAILABLE ARE AS FOLLOWS:
REM	S,ccc...c		SEND THE STRING ccc...c TO THE HOST.
REM				THE SEND COMMAND EXPECTS THE
REM				CHARACTERS TO BE ECHOED BY THE HOST.
REM
REM	T,ccc...c		TRANSMIT THE STRING ccc...c TO THE
REM				HOST. IDENTICAL TO THE S COMMAND,
REM				EXCEPT DOES NOT EXPECT AN ECHO.
REM
REM	R,ttt...t 		RECEIVE A STRING OF CHARACTERS FROM
REM				THE HOST UNTIL THE "TERMINATION" STRING
REM				ttt...t IS RECEIVED. ANY NUMBER OF
REM				CHARACTERS CAN BE RECEIVED BEFORE THE
REM				TERMINATION STRING IS ENCOUNTERED, BUT
REM				ONLY THE LAST 2000 (ABOUT 1 SCREENFULL)
REM				WILL BE RETAINED.
REM
REM	I,ddd...d,n		IF THE LAST RECEIVED CHARACTERS
REM				(INCLUDING THE TERMINATION CHARACTERS
REM				FROM THE R INSTRUCTION) WERE ddd...d,
REM				THEN JUMP TO THE INSTRUCTION LINE
REM				LABELED n. n IS A NUMBER FROM
REM				1 TO 9999.
REM
REM	G,n			GO TO (JUMP UNCONDITIONALLY) TO THE
REM				INSTRUCTION LINE LABELED n.
REM
REM	E,i,n			IF AN ERROR CONDITION OF TYPE i IS
REM				DETECTED, THEN GO TO THE
REM				INSTRUCTION LINE LABELED n.
REM				i CAN BE:
REM				 "SE" - SEND INSTRUCTION ECHO ERROR
REM				 "RE" - RECEIVE INSTRUCTION
REM				        PARITY, FRAME OR OVERRUN ERROR
REM				 "TO" - TIME OUT
REM				 "CL" - CARRIER LOST.
REM				n = 0 MEANS IGNORE THE ERROR, AND
REM				CONTINUE. THIS IS THE DEFAULT.
REM				n = -1 ("SE" ONLY) MEANS SEND A
REM				BACKSPACE AND REPEAT THE ERRONEOUS
REM				CHARACTER
REM
REM	L,lll			CONTROL THE AMOUNT OF INFORMATION TO
REM				BE SAVED IN THE LOG FILE:
REM				lll=ON -- SAVE RECEIVED DATA ONLY
REM				lll=OFF-- SAVE NOTHING
REM				lll=ALL-- SAVE BOTH TRANSMITTED AND
REM					  RECEIVED DATA (DEFAULT)
REM
REM	D,ddd			CONTROLS WHETHER THE DIALOG WILL BE
REM				DISPLAYED ON THE TERMINAL AS IT
REM				HAPPENS:
REM				ddd=OFF -- NOT DISPLAYED ON TERMINAL
REM				ddd=ON  -- DISPLAYED ON TERMINAL
REM					   (DEFAULT)
REM
REM	C,p			MAKE p THE CONTROL CHARACTER PREFACE
REM				FOR THE INSTRUCTION LINES THAT FOLLOW.
REM				I.E., ^M WOULD BE TRANSMITTED AS A
REM				CTRL-M	WHEN p="^". DEFAULT IS "^".
REM				THE C INSTRUCTION IS NON-EXECUTABLE.
REM				THAT IS, IT OPERATES ON THE INSTRUC-
REM				TIONS AS THEY ARE COMPILED, BUT NOT
REM				AS EXECUTED (SINCE INSTRUCTIONS
REM				MIGHT BE EXECUTED IN A DIFFERENT
REM				ORDER).
REM
REM	X			EXIT. CLOSE FILES AND RETURN TO CP/M.
REM
REM INSTRUCTIONS CAN BE PRECEEDED BY A "LABEL NUMBER". THIS IS LIKE A
REM LINE NUMBER IN BASIC OR FORTRAN. IT IS OPTIONAL. BUT OF COURSE, IF
REM THERE IS AN I, G OR E INSTRUCTION ANYWHERE IN THE INSTRUCTIONS,
REM THEN THERE MUST BE A LABELED INSTRUCTION WHICH MATCHES THE
REM LABELS GIVEN IN THE I, G OR E INSTRUCTION. EXAMPLE:
REM 100,S,hello^M
REM	...
REM	G,100
REM
REM NOTES: (1) ALL INSTRUCTION PARAMETERS MUST BE SEPARATED BY COMMAS.
REM	   (2) IF A COMMA IS NEEDED IN A CHARACTER STRING, THEN
REM	       SURROUND THE STRING WITH QUOTES ("...").
REM	   (3) LEADING BLANKS ARE IGNORED, UNLESS THE STRING IS QUOTED.
REM	   (4) DO NOT USE TAB CHARACTERS (CTRL-I) TO INDENT.
REM	       USE SPACES.
REM
REM TO INVOKE THE PROGRAM, TYPE
REM	DIALOG insfile.dlg logfile.log
REM WHERE insfile.dlg IS THE FILE CONTAINING THE INSTRUCTIONS, AND
REM logfile.log IS THE LOG FILE (TO BE WRITTEN BY DIALOG). THE LOG
REM FILE IS OPTIONAL AND CAN SIMPLY BE OMITTED. THERE ARE NO DEFAULT
REM FILE NAMES OR EXTENSIONS. REPLACING logfile.log WITH A QUESTION
REM MARK WILL CAUSE THE INSTRUCTION FILE TO BE COMPILED, BUT NOT
REM EXECUTED, FOR TESTING PURPOSES.
REM 
REM THE INSTRUCTIONS ARE STORED IN VARIABLES
REM 	COMM$ : THE COMMAND
REM 	ARG1$ : THE FIRST ARGUMENT (A STRING)
REM 	ARG2% : THE SECOND ARGUMENT (A NUMBER)
REM
REM PATCH AREA CONSTANTS:
REM DATA.PORT% = I/O DATA PORT FOR MODEM
REM CTRL.PORT% = I/O PORT TO READ TO TEST FOR TRANSMIT/RECEIVE
REM		 READY
REM TRDY.MASK% = THE BIT TO TEST FOR TRANSMIT READY (IS SET TO 1)
REM TRDY.POL% = SET THE SAME BIT AS TRDY.MASK% TO 1 TO REVERSE THE
REM 	POLARITY OF THE TEST (I.E. READY WHEN BIT = 0)
REM RRDY.MASK%, RRDY.POL% = SAME FOR RECEIVE READY
REM RERR.PORT% = I/O PORT TO READ TO TEST FOR READ ERRORS
REM RERR.MASK%, RERR.POL% = BITS TO TEST FOR READ ERRORS (I.E.
REM	PARITY, FRAME AND/OR OVERRUN), AND POLARITY OF SAME
REM RES.PORT% = I/O PORT TO RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING RESET BYTE. (SET TO
REM		-1 IF NO RESET BYTE IS REQUIRED)
REM RERR.RES% = BYTE TO SEND TO RESET PORT TO RESET UART AFTER
REM		RECEIPT OF PARITY, FRAME OR OVERRUN ERROR
REM CARRIER.PORT% = I/O PORT TO READ TO TEST FOR CARRIER PRESENT 
REM CARRIER.MASK% = THE BIT(S) TO TEST FOR CARRIER PRESENT (E.G. DSR)
REM CARRIER.POL% = POLARITY OF CARRIER BIT(S)
REM CC.PREF$ = THE CHARACTER THAT PRECEEDS A CHARACTER TO INDICATE
REM 	   THAT THE 2ND CHARACTER IS A CONTROL CHARACTER.
REM 	   (I.E. ^M = CTRL-M, WHEN CC.PREF$ = "^")
REM MAX.TIME = APPROX. TIME OUT TIME. FOR 4MHZ CPU, 1100 ~= 1 SECOND
REM
REM HOW TO PATCH THE .COM FILE:
REM USING DDT.COM, OR SOME OTHER PATCHING PROGRAM, FIND THE FOLLOWING
REM DATA STATEMENTS. THEY ARE PREFACED BY THE WORD "PATCH:". CHANGE
REM THE NUMBERS FOLLOWING PATCH: TO SUIT YOUR SYSTEM. THEY ARE IN
REM DECIMAL AND ASCII, AS FOLLOWS:
REM	(1) THE UART DATA I/O PORT NUMBER
REM	(2) THE UART TRANSMIT/RECEIVE READY I/O PORT NUMBER
REM	(3) THE BIT TO TEST FOR TRANSMIT READY
REM	(4) THE BIT TO BE EXCLUSIVE OR'ED BEFORE TESTING FOR TRANSMIT
REM	(5) THE BIT TO TEST FOR RECEIVE READY
REM	(6) THE BIT TO BE EXCLUSIVE OR'ED BEFORE TESTING FOR RECIEVE
REM	(7) THE I/O PORT TO READ FOR RECEIVE ERRORS
REM	(8) THE BIT(S) TO TEST FOR RECEIVE ERRORS (PARITY, FRAME
REM	    AND/OR OVERRUN, ETC.)
REM	(9) THE BIT(S) TO BE EXCLUSIVE OR'ED WITH THE ERROR BITS
REM	    BEFORE TESTING
REM    (10) THE I/O PORT TO SEND A RESET BYTE TO (-01 IF NONE)
REM    (11) BYTE TO SEND TO THE RESET PORT TO RESET UART FOLLOWING
REM	    RECEPTION OF A TRANSMISSION ERROR
REM    (12) THE I/O PORT TO READ FOR CARRIER PRESENT TEST
REM    (13) THE BIT(S) TO TEST FOR CARRIER ON (I.E., THE DSR LINE)
REM    (14) THE BIT(S) TO BE EXCLUSIVE OR'ED WITH THE CARRIER ON BIT
REM	    BEFORE TESTING
REM    (15) THE DEFAULT CHARACTER TO BE A PREFACE FOR CONTROL
REM	    CHARACTERS
REM    (16) THE TIME OUT COUNTER MAXIMUM
