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

From: martinDESPAM@DESPAMos2world.com

PEEK.SYS driver source code is now available:  

 

https://github.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.
