Summary:
In the "Microsoft Windows Device Development Kit Device Driver
Adaptation Guide" for Microsoft Windows version 3.0, Section 1.7,
which starts on page 1-6, is missing text from its first paragraph.
Page 1-6 starts in the middle of a sentence that is not continued from
the previous page. The header and first paragraph of page 1-6 should
read as follows:
1.7 Windows Calling Conventions
You can write Windows device drivers in assembly language or in a
Microsoft high-level language. Windows requires specific segment
name and calling conventions that all Microsoft high-level
languages and MASM provide. However, assembly-language programmers
should use the CMACROS assembly-language macro package since it
will provide them with these conventions automatically. They can
also use MASM 5.1 and later versions, which also provide some
built-in high-level language features. (See Section 1.8, "How to
Use the INCLUDE Files," for details on using the CMACROS INCLUDE
file. See also the "Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit
Reference" for further details.)
This text is present in the "Microsoft Device Driver Kit: Device
Driver Adaptation Guide" for Windows 3.1 on page 8.
