The following codes use/return system handles:
NQ_Ain
NQ_Ain ($8600), Application enquiry (system use only)
IN: BC = NQ_Ain IX = application handle from OS_Poll OUT, if call successful: Fc = 0 BHL = pointer to application name (null-terminated) BDE = pointer to application DOR A = CLI-related attributes C = preferred code letter. OUT, if call failed: Fc = 1 A = RC_HAND Registers changed after return: ......../IXIY same AFBCDEHL/.... different
Notes
CLI-related attributes refer to Application Type Byte 1 in application DOR.
NQ_Khn
NQ_Khn ($8603), Read keyboard handle
IN: BC = NQ_Khn OUT: IX = keyboard handle Registers changed after return: A.BCDEHL/..IY same .F....../IX.. different
Notes
NQ_Shn
NQ_Shn ($8606), Read screen handle
IN: BC = NQ_Shn OUT: IX = screen handle Registers changed after return: A.BCDEHL/..IY same .F....../IX.. different
Notes
NQ_Phn
NQ_Phn ($8609), Read printer indirected handle
IN: BC = NQ_Phn OUT: IX = printer indirected handle Registers changed after return: A.BCDEHL/..IY same .F....../IX.. different
NQ_Nhn
NQ_Nhn ($860C), Read null handle
IN: BC = NQ_Hhn OUT: IX = null handle Registers changed after return: A.BCDEHL/..IY same .F....../IX.. different
Notes
NQ_Wai
NQ_Wai ($860F), Who am I? (system use only)
IN: BC = NQ_Wai OUT: IX = static process handle C = dynamic process handle (PID) B = 0 Registers changed after return: A...DEHL/..IY same .FBC..../IX.. different
Notes
- Static process handle is unique to each application. It follows slot number and application order in slot (1-31 for internal slot, 32-63 for slot 1, 64-95 for slot 2, 96-127 for slot 3, 128-255 for installed applications). Index handle is always 1, Pipedream handle is 3...
- Dynamic process handle (PID equivalent) is unique to each suspended or running process (range 2-127, Index PID is always number 1).
NQ_Com
NQ_Com ($8612), Read comms handle
IN: BC = NQ_Com OUT: IX = comms handle Registers changed after return: A.BCDEHL/..IY same .F....../IX.. different
Notes

IN: BC = NQ_Ihn OUT: IX = IN handle Registers changed after return: A.BCDEHL/..IY same .F....../IX.. different
Notes
NQ_Ohn
NQ_Ohn ($8618), Read OUT handle
IN: BC = NQ_Ohn OUT: IX = OUT handle Registers changed after return: A.BCDEHL/..IY same .F....../IX.. different
Notes
NQ_Rhn
NQ_Rhn ($861B), Read direct printer handle
IN: BC = NQ_Rhn OUT: IX = printer direct handle Registers changed after return: A.BCDEHL/..IY same .F....../IX.. different

NQ_Roz
NQ_Roz ($8621), Read OZ revision number (OZ V4.5 and newer)
IN: - OUT: DEBC = OZ revision number Registers changed after return: AF....HL/IXIY same ..BCDE../.... different
