Various people have in the past posted queries here asking about books on OS-9, and OS-9/68000 in particular. Until now, I've not been able to respond with much other than pointers to OS-9/6809 texts, which, while many of the concepts are similar, doesn't tell the whole story about OS-9/68000 by a long shot, or pointers to the manuals themselves, which aren't really meant to serve as tutorials. There is now a book on OS-9/68000, called *OS-9 Insights: an advanced pro- grammer's guide to OS-9/68000*, written by Peter Dibble. It contains examples of file managers, device drivers, code using pipes, events, and trap handlers, and much other stuff. For details of how to buy a copy, call Microware. James Jones
