I can't think of anything that would make me jump up and down quite as
much as that. That would be *awesome*. I think, however, that there
probably isn't enough documentation available to be able to pull that
off without an awful lot of code tracing and reverse engineering.
Well, that and the OS/2 and AIX software does quite a lot more than just a driver.
I assume you mean emulate peripherals - In that case, perusal of the Hercules source
should get more than enough info for that.
I have an old PC and I have a copy of OS/2, how do I know if my bridge is supported?
Is there a list somewhere?
