I see that TI's Personal Consultant package now runs on 286/386 machines in protected mode and can address 4 megs (instead of 2 megs) of extended memory. Does anybody know if this implies a new version of TI-Scheme is coming out that will run in protected mode and address the larger memory space? We have an application that sure could take advantage of that... -B -- "Simulate it in ROSS" Brian Leverich | U.S. Snail: 1700 Main St. ARPAnet: leverich@rand-unix | Santa Monica, CA 90406 UUCP/usenet: decvax!randvax!leverich | Ma Bell: (213) 393-0411 X7769

I've long since come to the conclusion that the PC Scheme used by TI
is very much more powerful than the one they sell. For one thing, it
can produce standalone programs.
Let me say here, in the hope that TI people are listening, that a
protected mode or OS/2 Scheme would be looked at with great favour, at
least by me.
