:) I understand. *sigh* Is there an alternative to using Mutex
semaphores? They seem to take a *LONG* time to lock/unlock (or is that
block/unblock). I recall seeing some code that used the DosEnterCritSec
or something like that to update the global buffers. That's not "right"
but it seemed to be more efficient.
