This is an example how one could hide a process on Windows based
operation systems from Task viewers like ProcDump (G-RoM, Lorian
& Stone) or ProcessExplorer (SysInternals).
It could e.g. be used as some kind of dump protection.
The way to get this done is very different on NT and 9x machines.
Displays CPU time usage, the list of processes (can be terminated) and the Task which are running (can be close or switch to). Plus a little net traffic monitor and a disk status report.
Displaying large amounts of technical data in a chart can be a frustrating Task. You can find tons of charting controls with fancy effects and useless features, but when it comes to displaying many curves at once, independently scaled on different axes, most of them fail.
tServer Task executes functions at low priority (254). serverSend
funtion is used to send a request to the tServer to execute a
function at the tServer s priority.
First tServer Task executes the i() system call to print the summary
of tShell Task. Next an address exception is caused in tServer
Task by trying to execute a funtion at non-aligned word boundry.
As a result SIGBUS signal is raised automatically. Signals
(setjmp() and longjmp()) are used to allow the tServer Task to
recover gracefully from an address error exception. For more
information about signals, please refer to sigLib manual pages.
