Hi Michael, we have implemented a started task in C. There are two functions in the C library that deal with operator commands, __console() and __console2(). Both functions will block when you try to intercept MODIFY or STOP commands, so they should be placed in a special application thread to have the main thread available to process your application logic.
See the C/C++ Run-Time Library Reference for details.

All, is it possible to write a started task in C? Ok, surely I know it is possible to write a program that never ends ;-), but I need to "catch" the operator command for stopping the started task ("/P" command if I remember correctly). Can this be done? Maybe with "signal()" ?
