check out the source for the greylib.asm.  It does something similar.  I
am still working on trying to figgure something similar out, so if
anyone else knows more, please respond.  Also, if anyone knows how to
make a program stay resident in memory, I'd like to know, but I heard
that was something for the next version of fargo.  one more thing to
add, does anyone know what the "sr" means in the greylib source?

hope that helped, and thanx to anyone that adds further
