RTX

This is a simple inquiry.   What does RTX mean or stand for.  I know it is the Keil RTOS but what does the R stand for, the T and the X.
Thank You.  I think R is real, and T is probably time, and for X ?, No big deal I am just curious.  I guess I am one of those that has to
know exactly even though I can guess, and over all it is inconsequential, just bugs me.

    Yes I see, that is probably as good as any.  I know it is just a marketing thing,.  Really just marketing name for that version of their RTOS
    So I will use eXecutive to satisfy my OCD.  My name is Bob, I just signed up.  I am a senior EE student at NYU-POLY, use to be Polytechnic
    University, in Brooklyn NY.  I am studying an intro course to Embedded systems now and thought I might listen in on some of the stuff here.
    I will listen and learn for a while and then add to forum if I think I can help.  I am 56 years old and decided I want to be an EE., almost there.
    Take care and thank you.
    Bob

    Literally RTX means Real Time Extension. It is a component standard, pre-integrated RTOS platform building complex hard real time applications that requires sophisticated user interface in windows.
