root_task


root_task(fn, @key args, suspended,
          name = void, group,
          input_stream = current_reader(),
          output_stream = current_writer())
      

Return a new task.

This function is similar to task() except the created task does not inherit the dynamic environment from the current task and the base priority is set to 0, the priority boost is set to 1.0e-6, and the quantum is set to 0.02. The dynamic environment of the task has the global bindings of the parameter objects, except current_reader which is bound to input_stream, current_writer which is bound to output_stream, and current_directory which is bound to the initial current working directory of the current process.
