Hi,
what functions should I all inside my busy-wait loop to make my program nice
to other tasks ? How can I control "nice" level (Idle or realtime) ?
With function is most portable ?
And maybe some Allegro functions are better ?

while (!finish) {
  do_calculations();
  djgpp_yeld();  // ?
  rest(100); // ?
}
