In the February '86 edition of "Personal Engineering and Instrumentaion
News" There is an article entitled "Pascall calls to DOS, BIOS
implement RS232 driver" written in Turbo Pascal.

I'm not a Pascal programmer (or much of any other language for that
matter) and I don't have the source in machine readable/transmittable
form. But you can get it from the author (address listed below) for $20
(it's public domain; the $20 looks like a media/time reimbursement).
There is also a note in the article "The listing for ASYNCQC.PAS is
also available through the online section of PE&IN with Videolog" but I
cannot decipher the meaning of the message. Also, PE&IN is on Compuserve.
