I couldn't find the FAQ, so I am here asking what may be an easy 
question that I haven't had much luck with on my own.

How do I read the position and switch settings of the joystick port?

I have written down some notes about bios call 15.  Using BC++ what
is the best way to accomplish this?  I don't need much, just enough
to get me started.

Thanks
