[comp.sys.amiga] RUNing accessories.

dillon@CORY.BERKELEY.EDU.UUCP (12/04/87)

	I would like to make an observation:

	CLI processes are limited... only 20 due to some quirk in DOS.  It
would be nice if programmers detach their own task for all these new 
accessories!  (hotkeys, printer intercept programs, etc...)

	You only need a CLI if you intend to execute other programs.  Otherwise
you simply need a process.  In many cases you can get away with just a task!
In a very few cases you don't even need a task!  The differences in core 
memory usage is very great.  Checkout the amount of memory that MWB takes up...
only 6K!

	BTW this isn't a flame or anything, I'm just taking the oportunity
to bring this trend out in the open.  PopCLI is really a great program!
