We have a custom-built device here called the "Geometry Processor", a sort
of programmable matrix multiplier.  It wants to speak to our vax through
a DR-11C (which we haven't got yet).

We need a generic type of DR-11C driver.  It's the usual situation, I
could figure out how to modify something like /sys/vaxuba/ct.c (which
seems to implement write but not read) but what the heck, maybe I can
save myself a lot of trouble by checking the net out first.

I am sure that learning how to write these things yourself is a
wonderful character building experience.  Really.

If anyone has source for a plain ordinary DR-11C interface that they'd
be willing to share, I would be most grateful.
