In my program, I want to play short music files. I use:
system("mpg123 song.mp3",0)
to run the program to play the song. But when I do this, the program freezes
until the song is finished playing. When it runs, the acknolwedgements and
such that normally show up when you run a dos based program write on top of
my GUI. Is is possible to run this process in the background so that I am
still able to use the GUI? This program will run on DRDOS, so multitasking
isn't a problem.
Thanks,
Brian

I set the dos app's Pif, (shortcut) to run minimized and check the box
"close on exit", that pretty much hides it from your other windows...
hope that helps.

No, because this will be running in real dos. It won't be a windowed app.
But thanks anyway.
