The following programs have been tested with VMM. I would like to

**************************************************************************
Programs that work when inhibited from using VM:
DynamiCache 1.02 (the filesystems of the cached devices have to be
inhibited from using VM; see VMM.guide, section 8)
Enforcer V37.42: Should be run before VMM (applies only to 68040).
FastCache V1.1 (copyright Philip D'Ath): (see comment for PowerCache)
Ghostscript
GNU Emacs 18.58: Emacs does not work with VM because it limits memory
addresses to 26 bits. This is forbidden on the Amiga and only works
by chance. I will not change anything in VMM to support this.
input.device: I'm not sure about this. I got a few unexplainable
crashes, when input.device was allowed to use VM. It doesn't use much
memory anyway, so it doesn't hurt to forbid VM for this.
PowerCache V37.115 (copyright Michael Berg):
It doesn't make much sense for a caching program to use VM.
See the note about the copyback cache in VMM.guide section "Known bugs".
UChess 2.89
**************************************************************************
Programs which don't work at all together with VMM:
MungWall V37.64: Mungwall still does not crash the machine, but you
might get some strange results, because Mungwall writes to memory it
hasn't allocated. VMM frees its pages when FreeMem is called on a
large memory region, so when this memory is reallocated, the patterns
written there by Mungwall might not exist where expected. Debug your
software without VMM running.
CacheX 2.0
Emplant
SaferPatches 2.0 (due to a bug in SaferPatches, it forgets to flush
the caches)
Enforcer (applies only to 68030)
TVPaint Junior 1.1
Migraph OCR V1.0
**************************************************************************
Programs that take over the machine like games, emulators,... should
be run without VMM.
There are many programs which don't use very much memory. Those work
most of the time, but won't be listed in this file unless explicitly
requested.
