I would be interested in hearing from anyone who can help me to understand
how to do a context switch between two processes via an interrupt service 
procedure.  What I would like to do is to allow more than one process to
share cpu time.  I tried installing 'TRANSFER(p1,p2);' in the code of an
interrupt handler ;but, this didn't work.  It would switch one time and
when the clock ticked again, I would have to hit the reset button.  I know
the real solution is to get Unix and go from there.  If anyone has done
this or knows how, please let me hear from you.
