I am working on a command line for an OS, working from scratch never seemed so hard. Ive only been programming for like 2weeks in assembler, so this is prolly very wrong. But here is the code

Code:
get_cmd proc near
    push ax
    push si
next_in:
    mov ah,0
    int 16h
    cmp al, 13
    je got_cmd
    mov [si],al
    inc si
    jmp next_in
got_cmd:
cmp si, cls
je clear_scr

jmp done_cmd

clear_scr:
call clear_screen
jmp done_cmd

done_cmd:
pop si
pop ax

ret
get_cmd endp    


cls is
cls db 'clear',0

I know why it isn't working, but how could i make it read the word as a byte?
