capturing string data from keyboard/input Hi,
I am using NASM and I am having a problem finding the correct instruction to capture string (more than one character) data from the keyboard.
I can capture int data (read_int) or even one character with get_kb
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Call your single key routine in a loop until
- the buffer where you're storing the string becomes full
- some previously determined character (say newline) is received.

Thanks for your reply. So, there is not a readstring command?

Nope -- in assembly language you have to roll your own. You can use C library functions, but that would defeat the purpose of you writing assembly language.
