GN_Skc, skip character
RST 20H, DEFW $3209
IN:
A = value to bypass HL = Sequense index: 0 => read from stream IX 1 => read from filter IX 2 = not allowed > 255 = read at (HL) IX = optional handleOUT, if call succeeded:
HL(in) > 255: (HL) points to character which stopped scanning, else HL(in).OUT, if call failed:
Fc = 1 Error code ???Notes:
Bugs:
It is reported to be useless due to too many bugs. If (HL) < A then the error handler is called with A = (HL) OOPS!!! hence the routine bombs out when a character < A is passed to it in (HL). From stream IX it is even worse. It skips over the character correctly but (IX) < A or (IX) > A cause an error (always RC_QUIT!!!).Related calls:
GN_Cls, classify character
GN_Skd, skip delimiter
GN_Skt, skip to value
