MEGGIN@vm.epas.utoronto.CA (David Megginson) describes
a desk accessory idea for multi-tasking TOS.  See referenced
article for details.

This is exactly the kind of thing I was talking about with respect
to a "general audience" RTX application.   So who wants to finance it?
I will dontate RTX to the project and I will make hacks as necessary
to add new functions if necessary.  RTX probably has most of low level
task switching needed for such a desk Accessory.

So what do you say David, are you interested?   Anyone?  Somebody
that knows GEM write a nice App with RTX hooks.  I'll help with
the system interface / design.

We don't need Atari to make this happen, although I think it's
foolish of them not to help us all do it.
