Programmer
I know that I am pouring gasoling on a dormant flame w/ this post, but...
I want to make Qbasic multi-task. I was so close w/ my old program GIOS, but I ran out of room (160K) b4 I had a chance to finish it. I just want to build something simple like Windows 2.0. Not an OS, just the GUI.
I want to run small programs w/o ever unloading the main one, and be able to switch between them.
Does anybody have any tricks?
keep these things in mind when you respond
*I am assembler illiterate
*I think using SHELL is cheating
*CHAIN won't let you pick up where you left off in a
program.
