-<p class=MsoNormal><b>Task Scheduler – cooperative multitasking for Arduino microcontrollers</b></p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal><b>Version 1.51: 2015-09-20</b></p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal><b>REQUIREMENT</b>:</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>A lightweight implementation of the task scheduling
-supporting:</p>
-
-<ol style='margin-top:0in' start=1 type=1>
- <li class=MsoNormal>execution period (n times per second)</li>
- <li class=MsoNormal>number of iterations (n times)</li>
- <li class=MsoNormal>execution of tasks in predefined sequence</li>
- <li class=MsoNormal>dynamic change of the execution parameters for both tasks
-     and execution schedule</li>
- <li class=MsoNormal>power saving via entering IDLE sleep mode if no tasks are
-     scheduled to run</li>
-</ol>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal><b>IDEA</b>:</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>“Task” is a container concept that links together:</p>
-
-<ol style='margin-top:0in' start=1 type=1>
- <li class=MsoNormal>Execution interval</li>
- <li class=MsoNormal>Number of execution iterations</li>
- <li class=MsoNormal>A piece of code performing the task activities (callback
-     function)</li>
-</ol>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>Tasks are linked into execution chains, which are processed
-by the “Scheduler” in the order they are linked.</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>Tasks are responsible for supporting cooperative
-multitasking by being “good neighbors”, i.e., running their callback functions
-in a non-blocking way and releasing control as soon as possible. </p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>“Scheduler” is executing Tasks' callback functions in the
-order the tasks were added to the chain, from first to last. Scheduler stops
-and exists after processing the chain once in order to allow other statements
-in the main code of <b>loop()</b> function to run.&nbsp; This a “scheduling
-pass”.</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>If compiled with <span style='font-family:"Courier New"'>_TASK_SLEEP_ON_IDLE_RUN</span>
-enabled, the scheduler will place processor into IDLE sleep mode (for
-approximately 1 ms, as the timer interrupt will wake it up), after what is
-determined to be an “idle” pass. An Idle Pass is a pass through the chain when
-no Tasks were scheduled to run their callback functions. This is done to avoid
-repetitive empty passes through the chain when no tasks need to be executed. If
-any of the tasks in the chain always requires immediate execution (aInterval =
-0), then there will be no end-of-pass delay.</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal><b>Note: </b>Task Scheduler uses <b>millis()</b> to
-determine if tasks are ready to be invoked. Therefore, if you put your device
-to any “deep” sleep mode disabling timer interrupts, the <b>millis()</b> count
-will be suspended, leading to effective suspension of scheduling. Upon wake up,
-active tasks need to be re-enabled, which will effectively reset their internal
-time scheduling variables to the new value of <b>millis(). </b>Time spent in
-deep sleep mode should be considered “frozen”, i.e., if a task was scheduled to
-run in 1 second from now, and device was put to sleep for 5 minutes, upon wake
-up, the task will still be scheduled 1 second from the time of wake up.
-Executing <b>enable() </b>function on this tasks will make it run as soon as
-possible. This is a concern only for tasks which are required to run in a truly
-periodical manner (in absolute time terms). </p>

-
-<p class=MsoNormal><b>COMPILE PARAMETERS:</b></p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>This library could be compiled with several options. </p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>These parameters must be defined before inclusion of the
-library header file into the sketch.</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>#define <b>_TASK_TIMECRITICAL</b></p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>...will compile the library with time critical tracking
-option enabled.</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>Time critical option keeps track where next execution time
-of the task falls, and makes it available via API through Task::<b> getOverrun()
-</b>function. If <b>getOverrun </b>returns a negative value, this Task’s next
-execution time is in the past, and task is behind schedule. This most probably
-means that either task’s callback function runtime is too long, or the
-execution interval is too short (then schedule is too aggressive).</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>A positive value indicates that task is on schedule, and
-callback functions have enough time to finish before the next scheduled pass. </p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>#define <b>_TASK_SLEEP_ON_IDLE_RUN</b></p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>...will compile the library with the <b>sleep</b> option
-enabled (AVR boards only).</p>
-
-<p class=MsoNormal>When enabled, scheduler will put the microcontroller into <b>SLEEP_MODE_IDLE</b>
-state if none of the tasks’ callback functions were activated during pass. <b>IDLE</b>
-state is interrupted by timers once every 1 ms. Helps conserve power. &nbsp;Device
-in SLEEP_MODE_IDLE wakes up to all hardware and timer interrupts, so scheduling
-is kept current.</p>

-to be explicitly enabled.</b></p>

+<p class=MsoNormal><b>Task Scheduler – cooperative multitasking for Arduino microcontrollers</b></p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal><b>Version 1.51: 2015-09-20</b></p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal><b>REQUIREMENT</b>:</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>A lightweight implementation of the task scheduling
+supporting:</p>
+
+<ol style='margin-top:0in' start=1 type=1>
+ <li class=MsoNormal>execution period (n times per second)</li>
+ <li class=MsoNormal>number of iterations (n times)</li>
+ <li class=MsoNormal>execution of tasks in predefined sequence</li>
+ <li class=MsoNormal>dynamic change of the execution parameters for both tasks
+     and execution schedule</li>
+ <li class=MsoNormal>power saving via entering IDLE sleep mode if no tasks are
+     scheduled to run</li>
+</ol>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal><b>IDEA</b>:</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>“Task” is a container concept that links together:</p>
+
+<ol style='margin-top:0in' start=1 type=1>
+ <li class=MsoNormal>Execution interval</li>
+ <li class=MsoNormal>Number of execution iterations</li>
+ <li class=MsoNormal>A piece of code performing the task activities (callback
+     function)</li>
+</ol>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>Tasks are linked into execution chains, which are processed
+by the “Scheduler” in the order they are linked.</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>Tasks are responsible for supporting cooperative
+multitasking by being “good neighbors”, i.e., running their callback functions
+in a non-blocking way and releasing control as soon as possible. </p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>“Scheduler” is executing Tasks' callback functions in the
+order the tasks were added to the chain, from first to last. Scheduler stops
+and exists after processing the chain once in order to allow other statements
+in the main code of <b>loop()</b> function to run.&nbsp; This a “scheduling
+pass”.</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>If compiled with <span style='font-family:"Courier New"'>_TASK_SLEEP_ON_IDLE_RUN</span>
+enabled, the scheduler will place processor into IDLE sleep mode (for
+approximately 1 ms, as the timer interrupt will wake it up), after what is
+determined to be an “idle” pass. An Idle Pass is a pass through the chain when
+no Tasks were scheduled to run their callback functions. This is done to avoid
+repetitive empty passes through the chain when no tasks need to be executed. If
+any of the tasks in the chain always requires immediate execution (aInterval =
+0), then there will be no end-of-pass delay.</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal><b>Note: </b>Task Scheduler uses <b>millis()</b> to
+determine if tasks are ready to be invoked. Therefore, if you put your device
+to any “deep” sleep mode disabling timer interrupts, the <b>millis()</b> count
+will be suspended, leading to effective suspension of scheduling. Upon wake up,
+active tasks need to be re-enabled, which will effectively reset their internal
+time scheduling variables to the new value of <b>millis(). </b>Time spent in
+deep sleep mode should be considered “frozen”, i.e., if a task was scheduled to
+run in 1 second from now, and device was put to sleep for 5 minutes, upon wake
+up, the task will still be scheduled 1 second from the time of wake up.
+Executing <b>enable() </b>function on this tasks will make it run as soon as
+possible. This is a concern only for tasks which are required to run in a truly
+periodical manner (in absolute time terms). </p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal><b>COMPILE PARAMETERS:</b></p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>This library could be compiled with several options. </p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>These parameters must be defined before inclusion of the
+library header file into the sketch.</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>#define <b>_TASK_TIMECRITICAL</b></p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>...will compile the library with time critical tracking
+option enabled.</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>Time critical option keeps track where next execution time
+of the task falls, and makes it available via API through Task::<b> getOverrun()
+</b>function. If <b>getOverrun </b>returns a negative value, this Task’s next
+execution time is in the past, and task is behind schedule. This most probably
+means that either task’s callback function runtime is too long, or the
+execution interval is too short (then schedule is too aggressive).</p>
+
+<p class=MsoNormal>A positive value indicates that task is on schedule, and
