[comp.os.os9] Still looking...

newton@ils.nwu.edu (David Newton) (02/02/91)

   I'm still looking for nitty-gritty internal details on how OS9 is put
together, how it deals with add-on device drivers, etc...  Any pointers are,
of course, greatly appreciated.

   TIA

We have two publications along these lines - OS-9 Insights ($45), and the
OS-9 I/O Technical Manual ($75). OS-9 Insights is a book, the I/O Technical
Manual is a manual addition.  Both deal with writing drivers and file managers
and include a fair amount of source code.  Contact your local Microware
distributor for more info.
