- No. This is the major argument against OzTeX: I hardly know of any
- TeX that doesn't come with a Big, ie >64K, version. Textures has
- a larger memory than any other implementation, so with Mac virtual
- memory it will gladly fill your whole hard drive if you have a page
- that is 3 foot square of commutative diagrams :-)

- I'd give anything
