I have developed a software package in Ada and thought it would be nice
to have the time perodically updated on the screen while waiting for the
user to input a value from the keyboard.
This "sounds" easy enough to do using tasks; however, once the program
reaches the Get(My_Number) statement all other tasks come to a grinding
halt waiting for this keyboard I/O to occur <grr>.
Any ideas how I can accomplish the requirement in para 1 ? I am using
Meridian OpenAda Dos ver 4.1.4, an ADA 83 compiler.
Thank you very much in advance.
David
