Subject:  [VOICENWS] Drivers: PEEK.SYS driver source code now available

++ From the VOICE OS/2-eCS News Service   http://www.os2voice dot org ++ 

From: martinDESPAM at DESPAMos2world dot com

PEEK.SYS driver source code is now available:  

 

https://github dot com/OS2World/DRV-Peek  

 

On the past only the DLL source code was available, now the complete driver is available under the GNU LGPL license.  

 

"Peek is an OS/2 Physical Device Driver that allows it's user to read/write from IO ports, map physical memory into the processes address space and to reboot programmatically.  

 

It is intended for all of us who sometimes need to interface to a bit of (possibly self-built) hardware from OS/2, and don't want to write an OS/2 PDD for that purpose."

Special thanks to Lars Immisch for turning it open source.
