Can someone help me on this...?
Reading in some characters, is the following correct, specifically the "inbuf" line. If I want to read in 3 chars, I have to use db 4, one to accomodate the "enter" key being pressed, which is also a character?

inbuf: db 4 ;3 chars + "enter" key
strlen: db 0 ;length of string
instr: times 3 db ' '

have you tested this code block in a little program? If you wrote a little proggy, you could trace through it with debug.
