| I don't know why I didn't think of this earlier, but Multi-Tasking for basic isn't that hard, its all a matter of saving all the variables to a list, or matrix, or string, or something! Not that I was going to do anything with it, I just wanted to mention... |

And it would be easy to terminate to, although most of you know this just
While A=5
...
stuff
...
0->K
While K=0
getKey-K
End
If K=5:4->A |

What you have described is Task Switching not Multi Tasking.
Multi Tasking invlolves giveing each program a turn in sequence, but only one program will be active.
e.g.
When you activate one program, the others are still active but the user interface is not available. |
