Does there exist a way of:

 a. That a program is running under VP/ix?  and
 b. Giving up time to Unix when necessary?

This is a similar question to DESQview's API which provides calls like
this. A program using them is potentially better behaved in a multitasking
environment, such as VP/ix.

Thanks in advance,

    - david
