Of course not. Nothing will.
FRTS runs with interrupts on. When running under timesharing, you do not 
have access to the hardware at that level.

With a slight reservation, though. I seem to have some vague memory of 
FRTS being able to run under RTS-8, if you emulate the FPP8. But my 
memory might be wrong...
