I would use lightspeed C which lets you write DA's without assembly.
Maybe lightspeed pascal does too, I don't know.  I'd also read Inside Mac
volume I chapter 14 (Desk Manager) and volume II chapter 6 (Device Manager).
I'd think a more standard way to do the whole project would be to pipe 
to and from the DA using Standard Edit Menu Cut and Paste.  MacTutor has lots
of sample DA code in back issues.  Good luck!
