Chapter 2 - Slot Manager / Slot Manager Reference

Getting Information From sResources
The Slot Manager provides a number of routines that simplify access to the information in sResources. Most of these routines simply return the value of an sResource entry.
The SReadDrvrName function returns the name of an sResource, formatted as a Pascal string and prefixed with a period. You can pass this string to the Device Manager's OpenSlot function to open the driver.
The SReadByte, SReadWord, and SReadLong functions return byte, word, or long values from an sResource entry. The SGetCString, SGetBlock, SReadStruct, and SFindStruct functions return pointers to larger data types.
