Just out of curiosity... have you ever tried writing a device driver in Ada?
My experience is that Ada is really well-suited for device-level
programming, and I'm curious about the experiences of others.
Why do you write device drivers in assembler instead of a higher-level
language? Just curious, I'm not being judgemental or anything...
