shareware-related problem with an ASP member by contacting the
member directly, ASP may be able to help. The ASP Ombudsman can
help you resolve a dispute or problem with an ASP member, but
does not provide technical support for members' products. Please
write to the ASP Ombudsman at 545 Grover Road, Muskegon, MI

6. Last Minute Changes or Corrections
The eXecute and Dos functions have recently been enhanced to
support swapping to XMS or EMS memory if available. If not
available WED will still swap to disk. WED requires about 200K of
space to swap out. WED now leaves only 768 bytes in DOS memory
when swapped out.
