Q: 

Do we have a thread library that is compatible with Turbo C?

Currently I am developing a program for academic purpose. We use Turbo C because we are requesting for interrupt directly with the hardware.

We can do anything for our project, and I've already chosen a topic. The thing is I think I really need 2 threads in my program. Are there any thread libraries that are compatible with Turbo C in this case?

Many Windows programs interact directly with the hardware without being written in a DOS environment in Turbo C. Take a look at the WDK for more information about this.

I understand that there are many more tools out there that allow us to request for interrupt, however, academically, with respect to the given assignment, using Turbo C is a must.

Fair enough. ------ If it's pure DOS then, I think you can't have threads - it's a strictly single-process/thread OS. You can only simulate them with the hardware interrupt or something
