I am experiencing some strange effects with djgpp interrupt handler 
program running under a DOS Console window in Windows 98:

I have chained my own interrupt handler onto the timer and keyboard 
interrupt - but the interrupt routine only seems to get called when the 
console running the program is running in the foreground. What am I 
missing here?? Is Windows clever enough to swap my interrupt rountine 
between bringing the window between background and foreground.

The basis for my interrupt code was taken from the djgpp website:
