WANTED: EMS Utility Software, TSRs living in EMS memory I'm currently using a few TSRs with some nice features like a PopUp calculator a Programmers ASCII reference, an Alarm Clock,... but after loading all the utilities I need, there's no base memory left to use the machine for any other program. The best solution would be to store the MAIN part of all these TSR's in the background (EMS, or extended memory). So my question is: Is there any PopUp TSR to do this job? mfg ve 02.09.88, 16:42 E-Mail: edelhoff@unido.bitnet

(I assume you are using a 386?) Anyways, QEMM has a command you prefix the TSR call to load it in high memory; like, for instance, to load Tornado Notes into high memory, I would use loadhi tn (I _would_ except I run TN as a task under DesqVIEW now...) -- /|\ /|\ .. . . . . . . . . . . | |\| |\| .. . . . . . . . . . . |/|\|/|\|/|| _ _ _ _ |_| _ _ |_ -__ _ _ARPA: lupin3@ucscb.ucsc.EDU | |/| |/|L_ (_\( ( (_/ | |(_\_) (_ || )(_)_)UUCP: *!ucbvax!ucscc!ucscb!lupin3 \|/ \|/ larry / hastings _/ WORK: sun!acad!metaware!funkster MetaWare "I wish people who have trouble communicating would just shut up."\\\ IncorporateDisclaimer:[MetaWare, UCSC]->opinion!=lhastings->opinion\\\Tom Lehrer

If you are running a 386 processor, you can use QEMM or 386^max to load
TSRs in "himem".
