NAME
BeginCardAccess -- Called before you begin credit-card memory access
SYNOPSIS
result=BeginCardAccess( handle )
d0 a1
bool begincardaccess( struct cardhandle * );
FUNCTION
This function should be called before you begin access
to credit-card memory.
Its effect will depend on the type of Amiga machine your
code happens to be running on. On some machines it
will cause an access light to be turned ON.
INPUTS
handle - Same handle as that used when owncard() was called.
RETURNS
TRUE if you are still the owner of the credit-card, and
memory access is permitted. FALSE if you are no longer
the owner of the credit-card (usually indicating that
the card was removed).
NOTES
This function may be called from within a task, or from a level 1
or level 2 interrupt.
It is highly recommended that you call this function
before accessing credit-card memory, as well as checking
the return value. If it is a return value of FALSE, you
should stop accessing credit-card memory.
