- This is probably because of all the file open/close requests that the
- overlay manager performs. It's possible that using DIET's -K option
- will fix this, as it causes DIET to keep the temporary uncompressed
- versions of files around, in case they are opened again. The files are
- only deleted when the program exits back to DOS.
