[comp.sys.ti] Anybody knows about TI Professional interrupts?

Hello,
Although I've read with interest the description of the ti plant,
I'm just wondering wether someone of you owns a TI Professional computer.
  
I do, and it is clear that a lot if MS-DOS software won't run on it,
especially  when it is graphics oriented or when it writes directly to the
screen.

What I am looking for is any information on how to make my machine more
compatible. Things like:
	- Interesting memory locations,
	- Information on the interrupts TI uses that are not generic MS-DOS
	  interrupts
        - Information on the screen management of TI (Yes, it begins at
	  DE00, but it looks like it is not contiguous!)
        - The latest version of the "emulate" program (mine is 2.11)
	- Patches to make non-running software runnable
	- etc etc

I've also heard of some tech-magazines devoted to the TI. Do they still exist?
If so where?

I have found out an amazingly simple patch for programs written in Turbo
Pascal, sadly enough I don't have it at hand here. This patch makes turbo
pascal programs running. If anybody is interested I'll beam it up.
I will inform you (by the news) of the results of this request.

Well..........that's about it. Thank you very much.

P.S. I am running MS-DOS v2.11 a
