I've noticed some of the contortions that NoClick has to go through after it makes a patched copy of the trackdisk.device in RAM. Can you comment on that code? I get the impression that it is very easy to make it so that any future task will use the patched device, but it is very difficult to make all current tasks use the new code. And that the real difficulty is in making it work under ALL conditions.
