Subject:	ANNOUNCE : Palantir 0.2beta

Hi,
I'm glad to announce the new version of my multytasking kernel for
Allegro
(originaly based on PDMLWP and JTLWP)

Palantir v0.2b            Allegro events, pre-emptieve multytasking
kernel. 

   - Pre-emtieve multytasking kernel with priorityies.
   - Mutex-semaphores, yield()
   - Universal *DEVICE* interface.(KEYBOARD,MOUSE,COMM, etc.)
   - Transparent (for developer) collecting of hardware and software
events.
     The only thing you need, just create handler for desired device.
     No while(TRUE) { if(mouse); if (keyboard); do_move(); do_...} loop.
     Events driven system, instead of it.
   - Developer defined level of task priority.
   - Start point for creating events driven GUI, SHELL, etc.
   - Include DZComm 0.4+ ( + mean what comm port is device in term of
Palantir).
   - Freeware (full C source).

Note : current version tested with Allegro oct19WIP
You may get it from my download page.
