------------ MIT/ISI COMM GROUP
COMMREAD ME Release letter for MIT/ISI communications package
COMMMSGS DOC Details about IBM Async port & BIOS and MIT/ISI comm.
package.
LPT_PKG ASM An interrupt driver and interface package for the
line printer. It uses the same circular buffer
scheme as the COM package. It is primarily intended
for special applications, such as printing graphics.
INT_PKG ASM These routines save and restore interrupt vectors.
"Chained" vectors are not directly supported.
Vectors may be saved/restored in one of three ways:
DOS 1, DOS 2, or no DOS.
EXMEM ASM These routines provide additional physical memory
access. Memory is accessed with 20-bit addresses.
All of physical memory may be accessed, regardless
of the programming "model".
EXIO ASM These routines provide additional machine I/O functions
beyond the Lattice-supplied inp() and outp(). The new
functions solve certain interrupt-and DMA-related
problems in devices which require multi-I/O control
sequences. These routines are not used by the rest of
the distribution at present, but may be used in the
future.
COM_PKG ASM The interrupt-driven COM package.
COM_PKG1 ASM Provides a library of serial port routines.
BMACTST ASM This program tests the BMAC macros.
TSTLPT C A test program for LPT_PKG.
TSTINT C A test program for INT_PKG.
TSTEXMEM C This program tests the routines in EXMEM. For complete
confidence, the test should be run under the control
of a debugger to verify the results.
TSTCOM C A test program for the COM package. Allows the IBM PC
to act like a glass TTY connected to a host via COM1:.
This program is more useful when you are running the
ANSI terminal driver. There is no protection against
DOS character traps (control-C, etc.).
TSTCOM2 C A second test program for the COM package. It
allows the IBM PC to approximate an (expensive)
null modem between COM1: and COM2:.
TITLE MAC These macros provide functional replacements for
the standard TITLE and SUBTTL macros. A table of
contents appears in the symbol table at the end
of an assembly listing.
DOS MAC This file comes from the Lattice C distribution. It
defines which programming "model" is being used, for
the benefit of assembly routines. It defines the
PSECTs used for code and data. Edit this file to
select your programming "model". This version of
DOS.MAC fixes a bug in the standard Lattice C version.
BMAC MAC Assembly language macros which encapsulate the sub-
routine call interface. The macros define names for
subroutine arguments and temporary variables on the
stack. This version interfaces with Latice C (aka
Microsoft C). Both large small programming "models"
are supported. A separate version of BMAC could be
created to interface to IBM Pascal, if desired.
TRUTH H Contains type definitions for the bool (boolean)
data type.
EXMEM H This file defines the p_addr (physical address)
data type, and defines the return values of some
of the EXMEM functions.
BEAUTY H A set of macros and type definitions which enhance C
program portability and reliability. The macros define
an enhanced set of character and integer data types.
Edit this file to select your programming "model"
(long pointers vs. short pointers).
GLASSTTY PAS Simple dumb terminal for IBM PC.
