I've seen a few postings over the past few days requesting info on how to
program the PC's DMA and interrupt hardware.  A good book to check out (in
fact the only book I've found so far) is Lewis Eggebrecht's "Interfacing to
the IBM Personal Computer".  It is a SAMS book, ISBN 0-672-22722-3, costs
about $25.00.  Be sure to get the second edition as it covers the AT and
PS/2 lines as well as the XT.

Should anyone know of other sources, please post to this newsgroup.  I
believe that the info would be of general interest.

As an interesting sidenote, I believe that Eggebrecht is now head of
engineering at Commodore-Amiga.
