Hi,
Thanks for the replies. My concern is still on the criteria of limiting
task. It seems that memory restriction is the best in limiting the task,
i.e. if I can detect how many memory left, is it sufficient for a
task/window, if not, I don't let the window start etc. But, how can I
determines such parameters?
Or I simply limit in the nanowm that I can only open one or two task?
Thanks
CC
