It's been a while since I've done this, but it sounds like you want to
view your source on one screen and your output on another.  With Turbo
Debugger, use TDINST to configure it for dual monitor debugging.  I
think the option is called "Other Display."  Type MODE MONO.  You
should now have your DOS prompt on the mono screen.  Run TD386, your
output will be on the color screen, your source will be on the mono
screen.  No you can't reverse this as far as I know.

Good Luck!
