[comp.sys.att] TSR programs: Writing formatted text and spawning processes.

anon@rouge.usl.edu (Anonymous NNTP Posting) (03/29/91)

	I am writing a TSR to pull-up a menu when a hotkey combo is
pressed.  I am having problems, however, in writing formatted text to
the screen (i.e. cprintf, printf or sprintf).  By the the way I am using
Turbo C if you haven't already guessed.

	I am also having trouble with spawning another process from within
the TSR, which is an interrupt handler routine.  I have tried the 'spawn' 
function in TC with no luck.

	Any information on either or both problems would be greatly
appreciated.
