Re: A86: port 1




Calling GET_KEY is smaller if you want to test if different keys have been
pressed, since it checks them all for you.  For example, if you want to see
if EXIT, MORE, ENTER, or CLEAR have been pressed, that would require
reading the port 4 times (actually only twice if you are smart).  But I
think Tercero is right, people are scared to learn how to use the port.
Assembly Studio is nice, it has the key table right there in the help file...
