I have a program (UUPC) which makes a lousy application to run an Windows DOS window because it has an idle spin loop which soaks up a lot more CPU than it needs to. Is there a way for a non-Windows (Turbo C) application to gracefully surrender it's time slice? (I can switch to MS C 6.0, but do not have an SDK). Likewise, is there a way for a non-Windows application to notify Windows that the application is entering a critical path and doesn't want to lose its time slice?
