We have developed an application that uses up most of the memory in a 640K PC (what else is new). I wish to start up child processes that don't fit in the remaining memory. Is there any way to copy the active process to disk or extended memory just before a spawn() and then restore it upon return from the child? Please mail me, if someone has a good answer I'll post it. Thanks. Tony (...!alberta!oha!tony); Royal Canadian Association of Fauns and Satyrs.

Please mail me, if someone has a good answer I'll post it. Thanks. Buy Microsoft windows.... install it on a hard disk system.... Then use the Windows-level function call to start a new partition. BANG! you get multiple 640k segments. Rob.
