What is the best method to release cpu usage inside dosemu?
The problem is: I have made a program that runs in a loop checking
keyboard, mouse, network, etc.. It cannot call bios read key function
and lock there. But I can release time in the event loop.
Should I do HLT, call int28 many times? If I do HLT, will it restart
after "interrupt" events like keyboard, mouse, packet driver, timer
(54ms), etc?
thanks,
Alain
PS: I still have the problem below, BC31 is important because most of
FreeDOS itself is made with it...
