This has been suggested and may very well be the best way to handle manual removal of a runaway task. I plan to investigate this once I get my current updates squared-away.

The user tasks should respond to the run/stop button by shutting down gracefully. If a task (...) (22 years ago, 5-Sep-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
