- One of the other virtues/necessities I've found of ctrl-alt-escape
- in Lingua is that it makes the program "lighter" (in Itamar's
- beguiling phrase). When I am in power mode, w/Ibid, Orbis,
- Spellers (all the goodies) and have very little free memory
- left (as reported by F7), I am unable to shell to DOS. Does
- anyone else have this problem?
-
- But ctrl-alt-escape lightens it up, somehow, and I can slip the
- surly bonds.
