Re: A86: Please read this!!! New shell!!! I need help!



Allow me to restate:  If you have two programs running on a computer,  one is
taking a while to do something, so you decide to look at another program
while the other is working.  The one that's taking a while would stop working
if you pause it to look at the other program.  I'm sure it would be
beneficial if you don't want to get caught playing games in math class, but
come on think about it.  It's a figgen calculator.  there are limits.
