So this seems to be a mystery binary someone found on a company DVD, that runs DOS on one core and runs another core with code but no interrupts etc. Fascinating.

The thread later mentions a second way to do it.

In this setup, how would cross-core communication work, including cross-thread? On DOS is there even the concept of threads, or would an app using this have to invent user-mode thread objects and scheduling?
