Thanks for sharing. Note: The second EXE.ZIP contained within exevsys.zip contains a second copy of the source code rather than compiled EXE's. I have successfully compiled them all with TP but noted TPPATCH or replacement CRT is required on PASDEV.EXE due to its use of CRT.PAS for the sound/delay procedures.

Also good to see someone else correcting books like PC Intern which clearly says "It is not possible to write device drivers in a high level language". :)
