Way to go Patrick!
Hey BTW does anyone know why his site (along with all the other *.calc.org sites) isn't up? I've been trying to see calc.org, Patrick's page, Alienhead Productions... none of them work! Is this just my browser sucking or is there a problem? Well while I'm at it I'll briefly plug.. *cough* go to my site *cough*
Okay, I'm done. Good job Pat

Why isn't Pat saying like "Thank you all" and all that celebrity stuff? Is he being bashful? Let's flood his inbox with tons of fan mail so that he is red in the face for weeks ;) w00t!
TSE II deserves more credit as being the only multitasking shell for the 83+. GO TSE II!

I like the multitasking, but I can't program for it. If you make TSE a FlashApp, couldn't you just make a key hook for like [ON] to be set during the FlashApp and once you exit it it is reset? [ON] could me the minimize key, even for BASIC, Ion, Mirage, all of the others MirageOS supports as well as the old TSE programs. And would it have changeable interfaces like TI-Linux? And who would produce it, Detached Solutions or Radical Software? If it is better than Mirage(which I wouldn't doubt), I would have both produce it to have the popularity of a "Detached Solutions Software Production" while having traffic directed towards RadicalSoft and so other people can download others' programs like the staff of RadicalSoft who you overshadow, great god of (true) TI-multitasking, and other cool stuff.
P.S. Why don't you do us all a favor and offer to help with Calc.org's PHP coding dilema?

That would work except for the major problem that the kernel knows nothing about the program's state: what needs to be saved on tasking out, what doesn't, whether it is even safe to task out at that point in execution, etcetera, etcetera. It would need to preserve, in essence, the entire state of the calculator, to be sure of properly saving the program's state. Same goes, by the way, for task-switching with Ion programs.
While I'll admit it's a pain to put in all the task-switching code, the benefits greatly outweigh it.
