Oh, it is possible to guru in cases like that…but its not (to my knowledge)
ProWrite that is guruing, its the system. ProWrite can handle memory down to
only a few bytes free, but if it gets below about 16K or so of CHIP memory
the system has problems (simple things like trying to drag a screen down will
hang the system). Thats why ProWrite starts to warn you when memory gets
very low (something like "Getting Low On Memory–Please Save Your Work").
ProWrite was designed to use any amount of memory your Amiga has, it
_doesn't_ allocate a fixed size buffer, but simply allocates and deallocates
memory as it needs it, and only as much as is need at any given time.
