| Explanations of some 3d math concepts - I remember not getting the 3d rotations working correctly when I first started programming, but I'm not sure if that's my fault or the fault of the doc. Most of the docs are some simple linear algebra. They spell out the equations in the end for those who can't completely understand them.

| An elementary graphics system. The functions are very base and it's a good idea for anyone coding graphics engines either to understand how those functions work or to be given higher level functions to work with.

| Source for a small fire routine. Doesn't actually work on my computer. To answer a question proposed by the author about size optimization, inc al is bigger than inc ax because intel doesn't have an inc /r8 instruction. inc ax is of the form inc /r16 which compiles to db 40+rw, where rw = 0 for ax, 1 for cx, 2 for dx, 3 for bx, ... inc al is of the form inc r/m8 and compiles to db FE /1 where /1 = c0 for al, c4 for ah, c1 for bl..., 05 for a memory reference.... See an intel document for more details.

| Source for making a keyboard handler (int 9) and reading the keyboard from the handler - Doesn't tell you much, but is a good demonstration. I'd suggest for those needing to write a keyboard handler is to get a hardware reference for the keyboard and see what other options are available and how the code works.

| Supposedly gets you past the 64k barrier in real mode - I have no clue what compiler this is supposed to compile for. It uses opcodes not allowed in BC's inline assembler, watcom doesn't use that kind of inline assembler (and doesn't need this extender anyway), and this is pointless for djgpp which only compiles 32bit pmode apps. I have neither TC (but considering that's a sub-set of BC I can assume it won't work) nor Quick C (but that's so old, it's inline assembler's probably incomplete too).

| Rating:
| A Pmode kernel program with some extra libraries. Has a sound library and many other extras to make up for the fact that it's rather new and things such as midas, GUSPlay, or whatnot won't work with it. It's picky about assembling (tasm32+wlink only). No real documentation to help you get started.

| Xi Development System, a pmode extender. Uses tlink in the end, but works from watcom and tasm. Possibly a contender if you're writing a 64k intro and need a pmode extender. I'm unsure of it's stability, but it's small.

| Windows Tutorial 1. Denthor's back with some tutorials on windows graphics program. I (and he) recommend that you still get another reference (like a *gasp* book) if you know absolutely nothing about programming windows and intend to get serious about it. The tut has just enough info to grasp how windows works, the mindset needed for coding, and some basic messages windows can throw at you. Good for the ultra-beginner with windows. (Oh, the example here is a star field)
