We have modified go32 1.08 to support GPIB with the national board
I can send you a zip file containing the source code, you will have
ro replace le object file "mcib.obj" by yours and hopefully everything
should compile fine

go32 with gpib works fine, the only pb is that there is not
enough space in the small memory module to compile debug32 so
that if your program hit a bug with the GPIB stuff the only debugger
is yourself...

DJ is annoucing a new way to handle this kind of pb in the next release
so that you might want to wait

if your are interested by our port let me know
