Where can I get information about developing device drivers for
Windows 3.0/3.1? I know MS has a DDK, but I would like to figure
out if what I have in mind is possible before spending any money.

I would like to write my own COM driver to support several custom
functions on COM ports, such as monitoring and enhanced messaging.
I know 3.1 has improved COM functions, but there're still not up
to the level I need.

Where can I get information about this stuff? Thanx for any help!
