Suggestion: Multi core support ? #165

Hi there ! Thanks for making softgpu, it's a pretty cool piece of software !

Now hear me out yes I know windows 9x doesn't support multicore at all, however, I had thought about it after I remembered some very obscure thing made by Rloew before he passed away ...

Checkout "multcore"
https://rloewelectronics.com/catalog2.htm

Rloew said he had made a "multi core SDK" for windows 98, so while 98 doesn't support multi core CPUs, this would allow new programs designed with multcore to support multi CPU.

Now I haven't found source code for his software on the website (only a header file related to this), but maybe i just didn't look right, or maybe if get in touch with his son who made all the resources freely available, you could get it ?

This would definitely unleash a ton of extra power !

Anyways I'm just sharing my idea, there's probably a lot of technicalities that would make this pretty hard.
