Any textbook about the processor will do. But that's not the hard part - that's 
more or less the same for all compilers.

What makes things complicated is to know how parameters are passed hence and 
forth; which registers contain which pointers, etc. Sometimes a few details are 
described in the online help.

I still have some Borland Pascal packages, complete with manuals. I might OCR a 
few pages and send them to you if you use the same compiler.

You also might consider switching to a freeware compiler like FreePascal, 
available on the internet.

Cheers,
