Thread: Pause Console (ASM)

I was wondering if anyone knows how to pause the console in ASM? like with system("pause");

In school when we programmed for the 68k we used system calls something like

Code:

//function similar to getch in c
trap #15
dc.w 3

Don´t know if it helps ...

I assume you mean 16 bit assembly for DOS?

Code:

mov ah, 01
int 21h

Will wait until you press a key and then continue.

Yeah which is why I assumed.
