- TSRs can be programmed in any language which supports them or has direct
- interrupt access. Well, almost any. A good book for TSR programming
- would be Undocumented DOS (chapter five, I believe). This gives examples
- in C and assembler. You can also code it in Turbo Pascal with relative
- ease. But, like with anything, assembler is faster running and sometimes
- makes programming easier. Also, you might want to look at the Tesseract
- library of TSR programming available on wuarchive.wustl.edu
- (/mirrors/msdos/sysutl). Numerous libraries exist for C and quite a few
- for Turbo Pascal. I am not sure about Prolog, Lisp, Modulo-2, or other
- languages. As for the specifics of TSR programming, ask someone more
- knowledgeable.
