The Data Becker book has only the BIOS disassembled, at last my copy...

Well, there is a discompilation (re-assembly to C source) of the
(almost) complete GEMDOS (including reassembly of Bios, XBios and AHDI)
in a book called "Das TOS Listing". This one is published by the
Heise-Verlag, not Data Becker. Did Atari block publication of this in
USA?

The book is german. Still want it?

Dennis had stepped up into the top seat whet its founder had died of a
lethal overdose of brick wall, taken while under the influence of a
Ferrari and a bottle of tequila. (Douglas Adams; the long dark teatime...)
