-
- The following is the first part of a 3 part shell archive containing
- C routines to handle the NSC8250 serial port on the ibm-pc and its
- clones.
-
- There is minimal documentation but there afe makefiles for use with
- Microsoft, Turbo, and Zortech (formerly Datalight) C compilers. I believe
- there is also the basis of a vt100 emulator there which can be used for
- whatever dirty deeds one wants. The Zortech code compiled and ran flawlessly
- until version 2.06 at which point it quit running flawlessly. I could
- use older Zortech libraries and it would still run so there's something
- bizarre happening in the run-time with Zortech (the vt100 emulator still
- works with all versions however).
-
- As I said before, there isn't any documentation, but if you need tools for
- the serial port, this is a start.
