Ok, OK, I give up. I dug out my copy & here's the info that I have. I'm sorry, but I will ignore all personal mail on this subject. AT&T 3b2 and 3b5 Computer Driver Design Guide November 1984 305-495, Issue 1 What you probably want is the successor to this document. I do not, repeat, do not have any info on that document other than it exists. If someone else finds out how to get this, would you please post it?

The new ones (mentioned in my previous posting) is not an update: it's a total rewrite and very, very comprehensive. Steve -- Stephen J.

Also a document titled "Driver Design Guide" (UPDATE) [305-498] Hope this helps. -- Martin Leclerc : ...!attmail!mleclerc AT&T Canada : ...!attcan!cmtl01!mleclerc (514) 335-7200 : "It's mountain high, and river deep - the Right Stuff"
