Hi, Peter.  Thanks much for your insights on the questions I was asking in
regard to Real-Time apps using OS/2.  I will remember the timings you gave.
 
 
In the past, on mainframes, especially for IBM, mainframes, multi-taking
os's had the capability to define a high priority process (i.e. a task)
that the os would give to that high priority task - for
"real-time" tasks.  The general title to these specially defined
high priority tasks were referred to as TP (telcommunication Processes). 
 
Does any similar definion exist within OS/2 for high priority - aka
"real-time" tasks? 
 
I presume that somewhere in IBM's OS/2 literature - and perhaps in the C++
literature "real-time" is addressed - where might that be for
both OS/2 and C++, Peter? 
 
Would you have any contact information for the company that produces
VXWorks, Peter?  Thanks much for your help and sharing your experience on
these matters. 
 
Regards, -= Lou =-
