- JR-COMM multitasks for me just fine as long as I don't do these two
- things while connected:
-
- 1. Scan anything with my Epson color. (Perry must have a
- forbid() in the driver software!)
- 2. Play ST/NT modules while the serial port is locked at
- 57.6! Jack, are you abusing the CIA timers?
-
- Other than these two, JRC 1.02a works just fine in a multitasking
- environment. Although I hope his serial handling routines are
- better in the next version. Every so often the thing will "forget"
- what speed it's locked at and change it. Strangeness.
