- I've encountered a similar problem thats potentially more serious. Some
- OS/2 programs that I run in the background will also have this problem.
- For example, running djpeg in an OS/2 window in the background, and
- doing a bit of text editing and compiling in a foreground window will
- generate an error in the djpeg session as soon as the editor or
- compiler needs to access the disk.
-
- Dos programs experiencing errors I can understand (if not tolerate) but
- OS/2 programs failing just because they're in the background? Thats
- ridiculous.
