- You must set the DPMI_API (note, I can't remember the exact names of these,
- but there's not way to get them confused...) to "ENABLED". Then, set the
- DPMI_MEMORY_LIMIT to around 6MB or what ever's comfortable. Then, set the
- DOS_IDLE_DETECTION to '100' to _disable_ OS/2's idle detection of BC++.
- If the last step is omitted, your compiler will be _terribly_ slow. Hope
- this helps.
