On or about Tuesday (June 4), we updated the Device Driver
Development guide on osu-cis from version 2.2 to version 2.6.
Old version:
-rw-rw-r-- 1 ftp 51525 Apr 6 23:50 att7300/documents/DDDguide.mm.Z
The new version is around 52065 bytes long, and will be
128605 bytes long when uncompressed.
For those with ftp access, osu-cis ftp address is
"cheops.cis.ohio-state.edu". Full name of the file is
/usr/spool/uucppublic/att7300/documents/DDDguide.mm.Z
While many of the fixes from the previously available
version are trivial to the casual reader, several fixes
would be important to anybody actually using this guide to
write a driver. And the output should look a LOT better on
a standard 80-character printer with nroff.
Highlights of these changes:
o allows reasonable-looking tables to be printed with nroff
within 80 columns
o fixes several mis-reproduced type declarations in the
subroutine summarys and explanations
o reworded some paragraphs for clarity
o fixes many small typos and format problems
o changes *'s in code to math stars (should look the same
with nroff and better with troff)

Full name of the file is >/usr/spool/uucppublic/att7300/documents/DDDguide.mm.Z One minor correction to this: the file name listed is correct for *uucp* access but for *ftp* access the name is "pub/att7300/documents/DDDguide.mm.Z". -- David H.
