There is a very complete interrupt and bios library available under
shareware (I think it's around $30).  It's part of the ProDoor system,
which is an enchancement of PcBoard, the BBS program.  I would guess
it's not available on the nets, but I know it's available all over the
US on BBS systems-- I had it on mine when I was running it.
The latest one I saw was version 2.8, written in Turbo Pascal 5.5.
Hope this helps...  The data number for the author of the Prodoor
package (Sam Smith) is:  The Toolshop BBS, (phoneix,Ariz) 279-2673.
