Abstract
A control program for IBM compatible microprocessors utilizing the MSDOS operating system provides the ability for a plurality of application programs to pass information amongst themselves and to a KERNEL program whereby the KERNEL may spawn applications according to the contents of its message buffers, thereby enhancing the MSDOS environment without the usually encountered conflicts associated with inter-programmed communication schemes.
