exiting a program without terminating

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message

Hi all,

    Can anyone tell me how I could execute a program and exit it without
terminating the application?
Yeah, I know about TSR's, but I'm hoping there is an easier way.. or does
that mean threading?

Or... is it possible somebody could explain to me how to implement a TSR.
I have Ralph Browns interupt list, but it is pretty difficult to follow. I
understand the majority of it, but I have troubles with the data structures
that need to be passed.
Using the segment and far addreses confuses me completely.
Also, all the TSR interupts that I found in the interupt list seemed to be
all dos interupts, is this right?
Is there a different method of setting up a TSR for Linux?

I could probably get away with just setting up an interupt handler, but that
is just as confusing as TSRs. I've looked at the demos for interupts that
came with EU, but they weren't too helpful.

I'm not too keen on experimenting with the interupts. Especially for things
like that.
I already messed up my monitor on my old computer playing with the video
interupts. :(

TIA
Chris
