Hello. I have a problem trying to get a DJGPP program to run in the
background of Windows. When I press ALT+TAB to switch to something else, my
program freezes, and when I switch back, it resumes OK. It could be a simple
program that counts up to 1000 or something (just to give me a visual of its
output). I have a 133 Pentium with 24 MB of RAM running Windows95. Does
anyone know of a way to keep programs running in the background? Thank you
in advance. :-)
