[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Keyboard acitvated resident routines, source code

cy03+@andrew.cmu.edu (Chao-Ping Yang) (11/21/87)

Can someone send me an example source code for a keyboard acitvated resident
routine? I could not find the kind of documentation for that purpose. Is it
that one
has to reroute the keyboard harware interrupt ?

Thanks in advance!

I will be very keen to see a posting of a completely working TSR program too.
(preferably in C)

Can a RAM resident program be written completely in Microsoft C so that it
accesses the 8253 timer-chip and/or the serial com port periodically ? Any
wisdom in this topic will be greatly appreciated. 

I am currently involved in the development of a large multi-station, interrupt
driven software. Due to the complexities involved I want to stick with C (as 
much as possible). 

Lets have our experts' opinion(s) on this topic. Regards
