The idea is to be able to give instructions at the same time to the TOS
software and to the Native OS. With a lot of Algo. Comp. software, you can
store presets to be called from keys. As we can not modify the Atari
Software, if we could connect our instructions to the two systems, w could
make our own programs for making what we´d like the Atari soft tod. For
example, sending characteres to an LCD Display, receiving instructins form
external controllers, foot switches, etc. Another way would be to make steem
able to communicate with the native os for passing data to native os
programs, if it would be possible to permit us to programm in any form the
output to be passed to the native os.

I have had an accessory tha could record this kind macros, and it worked
