I am just starting to lay out the basics of a project and I am not sure =
of how fast you can write to a LCD display.

I am going to use a 16F877 at 20mhz and a 4bit interface.=20

If things go as planed I hope to have an interrupt every 1/160 second.
That should give me about 31,000 instructions to get some work done.
The interrupt will set a byte and then return to the main loop.=20
Each task will then have to finish in no more than 1/160 second.

I will need to be to write a 20 char line to the display whit in that =
time. Is it possible?

Also anyone see a major problem with this kind of loop tasking?
I am hope it works, it will let me break the project down into smaller =
parts to debug.

main loop         nop
                       if task =3D0 call0
                                ****
                       if task=3D15 call15
busywait          if task =3D same_as_last_Time goto busywait
               =20
    =20
