Thanks for the info that this is a DOSEMU 1.1.5.6 bug, not an EDIT 0.81 and not a DOSEMU 1.2.x bug then. [Bug was that sometimes keypresses are lost and therefore missing in the pasted text in EDIT when you send too much text too fast...] > > You are right about those tight checkforkey loops... [that even if it is only checkforkey and not getkey, if it is in a tight loop then it should be seen as sign of idleness] > that's the whole idea of the patch ! Oh. Now I get it. Thanks :-). I wonder if it would make FDAPM significantly better to add such a check. But on the other hand: After how many checkforkey events in 1 timer tick should it decide to sleep for 1 timer tick? What, apart from e.g. an int 2F or (better?) int 21 call, should be seen as a sign that the checkforkey loop is not tight? Example logics: if checkforkey then increment counter if timer tick then reset counter if int21 call then reset counter if counter > ??? then sleep until next timer tick Eric. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Oracle 10g Get certified on the hottest thing ever to hit the market...
