Hi all,
I have been reading all the messages about getting more
free memory and wondering why everyone was using EMM386. I
finally remembered that it is needed for UMB's. I am using
PTSDOS, which furnishes UMB's with their version of himem.sys.
It is also less than 6K! I have the source code, but not be-
ing a lawyer, do not know if it can be distributed. The old
"clean-room" procedure could probably be used if some people
are interested.
Still, it is not clear to me why more memory is needed;
I run Arachne on two different 486's and generally have in the
range of 540K free. I have never had any memory problems.
