Although BCX is a DOS application, I use it with Windows all the time.
The tkernel TSR (see my other post) must be used to get things talking
correctly.  Granted when I switch tasks the process halts, but I can
switch back and resume where I left off.  I typically compile, switch
to Windows and run the debugger and switch back without any difficulties.
