   In the July 1988 BYTE magazine, there is an article called "A Turbo TSR"
which gives an outline of how the author of the article designed a simple
TSR which, when activated with a hot key, shows a clock on the screen.  The
article itself gives rather sketchy information, but there is an editor's
note as follows:
  Pseudocode for QuickTime is in listing 1.  The complete source for QT
  is available on disk, on BIX, on BYTEnet, and in the Quarterly Listings
  Supplement.  See page 3 for further details.
(QuickTime, or QT is the name of the author's TSR; BIX is Byte's
bulletin board).

   You might want to follow up on this; I think it would likely solve most
of your problems.  By the way, QT is written in TP4.

   Hope this helps.
