You stepped in it Clarence! Arachne does not need multi-tasking, and
neither does any other program in my computer. When I'm running Arachne,
and I want to run some other program while still connected with Arachne,
then I just press "ALT + E" to escape to DOS shell. I do what I have to do,
and when finished, I just type "exit" at the command line. Presto, I'm
right back into Arachne at the same place where I left off. Who needs
multi-tasking? With DOS there are already plenty of utilities and
work-arounds that allow for cutting and pasting between one application
and another.
