CheckPort v1.0 (24.08.98)


        CheckPort  tests  mouse  buttons or joystick fire  button  and
    returns a result to the system via a  WARN  variable.   It is 100%
    written in assembler, it is small and compact.  Now it is possible
    to check buttons while running script files.


        If you  want to  check if  a button  is pressed,  then you are
    able to use it like this, for instance:


            CheckPort LEFT
            If WARN
               Echo "Left button is pressed."
            Else
               Echo "Left button isn't pressed."
            EndIf


        This  script  will  write the  right message  according to the
    condition of the left mouse button.

        Currently, CheckPort takes these parameters:

            LEFT ..... it checks if left mouse button is pressed
            RIGHT .... same for right mouse button
            BOTH ..... are both mouse buttons pressed ?
            FIRE ..... check joystick fire button

        CheckPort is the right choice for startup scripts, for instance
    you can put it into STARTUP-SEQUENCE.
