[comp.sys.amiga.tech] ASDG-low-mem.library

fche@db.toronto.edu (Frank Ch. Eigler) (01/04/90)

Hi, folks.

Is the asdg-low-mem.library public domain?
	(freely redistributable?, etc.?)

Can someone (perhaps someone at ASDG) send me the specs for using
this?  I'm interested because it seems like just the thing for a
large multitasking project.

Thanks!

(I'll let Perry answer this, but the FaccII disk has a README file 
that explains the policy.)

1 -- Perry, could you list the products that use it?

2 -- I would LOVE to see certain programs start to use that library.  
Especially AmigaTeX (so it could flush it's caches automatically) and 
WordPerfect (so the "overflow to disk" could use a dynamic buffer, 
instead of a static one).

And how about REZ, so it could start flushing least-recently-used cached
programs when you run out of memory?
