I don't have the list of DOS function calls in front of me, right now, but
there definitely is a call which returns the current weekday in one of 
the registers.  0 = Sunday and 6 = Saturday.  I've written a couple of 
small applications using the function and it works very well.There are four
DOS functions grouped together.  They are called get date, set date, get
time, and set time.  I believe the one you want for the weekday is
get date.
