Known problems
--------------
Defective coprocessors. Mercury exercises the math coprocessor fairly
thoroughly, and a coprocessor which is not rated at the correct clock
speed may not perform correctly. If you get mysterious crashes, try
turning of the math coprocessor with SET 87=N at the DOS prompt.
The newer Intel 80287 chips and clone chips will be identified as a
an 80387, as they behave more like a 80387.
The LOAN.EKA example in chapter 6 of the manual is stated incorrectly.
The file provided on the disk has the proper formulation.
User-defined functions cannot be used in a problem where all the
variables are complex.
Mercury uses a lot of RAM. You may have unload some of your TSRs or
device drivers for Mercury to run.
To send me a fax, you have to call first on a voice line and warn me
that a fax is coming.
