- Clipper memory manager uses swap file as a tool for organizing virtual
- memory. The disk to create the file should have enough space to place it
- (up to 1Meg for large applications, typically 300-600K). If you current
- directory doesn't have enough space, try to use SWAPPATH-? variable to show
- where Clipper should keep the files.

- I think it is a common problem people collide with. So I post it.
- There is no Clipper newsgroup. But there are specialized Clipper BBS
- (ask your distributor).
