I got Reschedule working.
I simulated it using a javelin.
See the attached text files for timing tables.


The timing tables show:
If N tasks are running, the minimal interval time should be N.
If all tasks have identical interval time, they should have different start delays

We could define a TASK to take 2 constant parameters: startup delay and interval
eg. myTask TASK 3,10

Bean, you mentioned start/stop a task.
In my test program I support 8 running tasks, but since the taskId are loaded into ram,
we could define more tasks, but only 8 can run simultaneously. A few bits of the taskId
could serve as flags (status,suspend,dataready) which the mainloopcode can test.
Lets say 3 flags (b7-b5), then there still can be 32 tasks.

Since the arrays must be preloaded by the compiler, I think the task parameters
are best stored as data, using iread to preload the arrays.
