Well, here's a step in the right direction. (URL) I just have to figure out what it means. (22 years ago, 19-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

As I said before: ("LegOS Team"=Unix)=Generalization I think I'm in the same boat as you, Ed. Personally, I really don't want to re-write the kernel (there are other more qualified people working on that) however I'm very interested in making LegOS (...)

Steve, (...) LegOS? I have been looking into this (in between spending time with my family who is town and sneaking on the computer when my wife is not looking). Basically I don't know yet.

Joe I think proportional timeslicing would be a nice thing if the implementation would be efficient and straightforward. I don't consider my patch to be that. Would still be nice to see a snippet of your code. How do the other kernel developers feel (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

What exactly needs to be done to 'upgrade' DJGPP to work with the new LegOS? Are these same changes required for cygwin? I assume the 'unix' part of this is done by the "LegOS Team", which means it works with Cygwin, but now someone (like Ed) needs (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I have found that using proportional timeslicing works great in many situations. It is more forgiving for new developers, since a "runaway" process will not block processes of lower priority. (runaway process used here to mean a process which never (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hello Ed, problems, problems, problems :) <sigh> Never knew your DOS life is so complicated.
