	A general-purpose reference on device driver programming is

	  "Writing a UNIX Device Driver", Egan & Texeira, Wiley 1988.

	A good overview of TTY device drivers and line disciplines
	can be found in

	  "The Design of the UNIX Operating System", Bach, Prentice-Hall 1986

	Also quite relevant is

	  "The Design and Implementation of the 4.3BSD UNIX Operating System",
	  Leffler McCusick & Karels, Addison-Wesley 1988
