- In case anyone else is having problems along these lines, I'd just
- like to mention that I've experienced fatal crashes (memory allocation
- errors) when trying to use pkunzip 2.04c in a Windows 4DOS session.
- In order to prevent this, I'm using the '-)' switch, which disables
- DPMI support (this is mentioned in ADDENDUM.DOC). This seems to
- eliminate the problem.
-
- Just thought I'd pass that along. If anyone *doesn't* have problems
- with 4DOS and pkunzip, I'd like to hear about what they did to get
- around it (other than the above-mentioned solution).
