Lines: 25 {} I have an IBM-PC/XT with full memory. I want to run Crosstalk in the background waiting for a call while another program is running in the foreground. (Specifically I want to run Word Perfect in the foreground). Ideally, I would like for someone to be able to call and leave or take files from my system using Crosstalk at anytime without having to have that person tell me they are going to call so I can leave Word Perfect and fire up CrossTalk. If anyone knows of a program or method that would allow this sort of thing, please let me know.
