can anyone help... I am writing a program using GFA basic.
I am using the wave command to generate a hiss, however, as soon
as I touch the keyboard, this noise is terminated by the keyclick.
How can I keep the sound going any ideas?

| 96.2 | Here's a poke, still looking for a function | MILRAT::WALLACE | Wed Jun 01 1988 10:43 | 24 | |
I've also wanted to be able to turn of the key click but was not
able to figure out how at the time. So prompted by .1 that there
realy is a BIOS call to do it I poured over the books again last
night. I must be a little dense because I still couldn't find a
function to turn off the key click, I looked at BIOS, XBIOS, and
GEMDOS calls.
I did however find a system variable that allows you to turn off
the key click. It is "conterm", a byte at address $484 (0x484),
and is defined as follows-
Bit Value Action
0 1 Enable Bell (IE:for ^G)
1 1 Enable Key auto repeat
2 1 Enable Key Click !!!! **** ####
3 1 Enable "kbdshift" reporting for conin()
Since this is a system variable you need to switch to supervisor
mode before you access it.
I'd still feel better using a function call, but since this is a
"documented" system variable I assume it's safe to use (ie:will
not change for future roms and Megas).
