Hi all,

    I've just finished and put online a new tutorial. It covers interrupts
and their various types, signals, handlers, the 8259A PIC and related
hardware material, how do deal with interrupts and handlers in a
protected-mode environment, reentrancy, latency, interrupt driven I/O vs
polling, interrupt service time, etc... It also has an associated zipped
file that contains examples (in the form of a step by step "walkthrough")
for all these topics and a few other things, including memory access in
Djgpp. All examples compiled with Djgpp V2.03 (C and AT&T assembly) and NASM
0.98 (Intel assembly).
    The tutorial lies at :

    http://mega.ist.utl.pt/~fjds/

    Under the programming section. It has been split in two html files due
to space constraints.
    The tutorial is quite big and is the result of many months of hard work.
I would really appreciate it if you could provide feedback. Despite careful
proofreading, mistakes have a tendency to creep in. Also, I wanted to know
that at least someone is interested in this kind of tutorials (as it
consumes quite a lot of time...). Thanks in advance for your feedback.

    Gratitude is expressed to Peter Johnson for graciously allowing me to
inspire from some of his code, to Shawn Hargreaves for building such a great
programming library (Allegro) and for answering my various questions and to
Eli Zaretskii for maintaining an amazing Djgpp faq list and for providing
precious help and feedback
