If you look at Larry Coon's answer to my original article you will see
that other Ada compilers do multitask. We have a Modula-2 compiler for MSDOS
here which also multitasks. My question really is, and I'm sorry if I didn't
make this clear, what I can do (if anything) to my EZ2LOAD installation
of GNAT 3.07 and/or the included minimal DJGPP 2.0 which will emulate
multitasking, certainly to the extent of scheduling some other process if
I issue a Delay call!!
