[Coco] Basic09/disabling processes/saving CPU time

 I could use a little more CPU time in my CNC effort with a CC3.

 I was wondering if it's possible to issue a BO9 statement that could 
disable any non-critical interruptions in OS9 to give maximum CPU time to 
the routine inside a B09 program, such as when I'm stepping the motors in my 
Coco CNC machine. After the stepping is done, then I wish to issue a 
statement to put things back like they were.


 Please. This needs to be done in Basic 09. A SYSCALL is okay. I like those, 
but don't undstand them.

 Current progress in this project is that I can now engrave an aluminum 
plate with the name of the company I work for  and the equipment number 
below the name. I need to get a photo of that onto my Coco site.

 Engraving can be done FAST with a dremmel. Speed would help.
