Please don't laugh.  We have a few PC's sitting around with 256K of RAM.
DOS takes up 54K, which leaves me with 202K.  Kermit needs 220K (pg. 10,
MS-DOS KERMIT by C.M. Gianone).  Now in this nifty little book it says
that KERMIT will run on more or less memory -- but nowhere does it
explain how this is accomplished.

Work has spent thousands already on their HP server (good support, but
they really need it -- quirky OS) and my "chalange" is to come up with
"miracle" solutions at "K-Mart" prices.

Ugh.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
