DOS pseudo functions: Send a Message to All Terminals

Syntax: DOSRW(AX-value, number-of-bytes, format-statement-label) EXCP=statement-label
Entry:
AX-value = "@FFFE@" number-of-bytes = number of characters to be written to another terminal format-statement-label = format statement containing the message to be written to the other terminal (may be a constant or variable)

Return:
If the write function is successful, the message contained in the format statement will be sent to the terminal specified. If an exception occurs, byte 2 of the AX field will contain the DOS error code (in hex).
