I'm a new user (and beginning low level programmer) and one of the
main reasons I've decided to learn/use DJGPP to access a memory mapped
card is the seeming available documentation (faq, user's guide, mail
archive, etc) and online support (this group).  I read many sections
in the User's Guide and thought they were great.  They were short and
concise.  Including a pointer in these short documents as to where to
find more information on the same topic would be very nice.  Keep
producing documentation.

I'd love to see more How-To articles.  For example in my case, short
snippets of code showing how to locate PCI cards, how to use read and
write to a PCI Base Memory Address which is greater than 1meg.

Keep up the great work.
