- If this program is Desqview aware you can use os2speed available from hobbes
- which maps DV idle calls to similar ones available in OS2 to lower the cpu
- loading when the app is just polling. I use it with Qmodem and SLMR, and now
- the cpu load is minimal when both apps are just polling for keyboard input.

- Good luck,
