[Elecraft] P3 and Other Windows Simultaneously

[Dauer, Edward]

OK, bad terminology.  I’m a lawyer, not an engineer.  The suggestion
someone (I forget who) made was this - take the P3’s SVGA output and
change it by some miracle into something the MAC’s Internet browser would
think is an incoming Internet site.  Then, because the Mac (and every
other computer) can display an Internet site simultaneously with any other
window from an onboard app, the problem is solved.  How that magical
transformation could be made to happen was beyond me.
