Thanks to everyone who responded to my question. I will adapt the INT2F.1680 (+ HLT) method, as some of you suggested.
However, as this was already built into EDIT, one comment in the source caught my attention: > #if 0 /* int 2f is often quite crowded */ > r.x.ax = 0x1680; /* release multitasker timeslice */ > int86(0x2f, &r, &r); /* multiplexer call */ > #else Why was that section disabled? The comment mentions that "INT2F is often quite crowded". Was EDIT becoming unresponsive in the past because of it?
