How do I address ports, interrupts and segments like in > the non-protected days with turbo C now that I have gnu C? ports - use 's in* and out* calls interrupts - wait for 1.11, but there's only a few you can rely on. segments - there aren't any (effectively). 1.11 adds some functions to deal with "selectors", but nothing in this realm is compatible with turbo-c. > 2.) How can I patch the async asm source to do greater than 9600 bps? I don't think it knows about baud rates. I use a separate utility to program the baud rate to 19200. Note that you may not be able to handle the interrupts that quickly from protected mode.
