-----------------------------------------------------------
INT 0 - DIVIDE ERROR (CPU CHIP)
NOTE - Automatically called at end of DIV or IDIV
operation that results in error. Normally
set by DOS to display an error message and
abort the program.
-----------------------------------------------------------
INT 1 - SINGLE-STEP (CPU CHIP)
NOTE - Generated at end of each machine instruction
if TF bit in FLAGS is set. This is what makes
the T command of DEBUG work for single-stepping.
Is not generated after MOV to segment register
or POP of segment register.
-----------------------------------------------------------
INT 2 - NMI (CPU CHIP)
NOTE - Generated by NMI (Non Maskable Interrupt)
signal in hardware. Used for memory parity
error trapping.
-----------------------------------------------------------
INT 3 - 1-BYTE INTERRUPT (CPU CHIP)
NOTE - Generated by opcode CCH. Generally used to
set breakpoints for DEBUG.
-----------------------------------------------------------
INT 4 - OVERFLOW (CPU CHIP)
NOTE - Generated by INTO instruction if OF flag is
set. If flag is not set, INTO is effectively
a NOP. Used to trap any arithmetic errors
when program is ready to handle them rather
than immediately when they occur.
-----------------------------------------------------------
INT 5 - PRINT-SCREEN KEY (IBM)
NOTE - Automatically called by keyboard scan when
print-screen key is pressed. Normally executes
routine to print the screen, but may call any
routine that can safely be executed from
inside the keyboard scanner.
-----------------------------------------------------------
INT 6 - UNKNOWN
-----------------------------------------------------------
INT 7 - UNKNOWN
-----------------------------------------------------------

INT 28 - INTERNAL VECTOR (IBM)
NOTE - This interrupt is called from inside the
"get input from keyboard" routine in DOS, if
it is safe to use INT 21 to access the disk
at that time. It is used primarily by the
PRINT.COM routines, but any number of other
routines could be chained to it by saving
the original vector, and calling it with
a FAR call (or just JMPing to it) at the
end of the new routine.
Until PRINT.COM installs its own routine,
this interrupt vector simply points to an
IRET opcode.
-----------------------------------------------------------
INT 29 - INTERNAL UNKNOWN
NOTE - This interrupt is called from the DOS output
routines if output is going to a device rather
than a file, and the device driver's attribute
word has bit 3 (04H) set to "1". Nothing
more is known about it at this time.
