Rich;
Just to clear up one point. With Pgs on a 1 meg machine, with _over_
200K of free RAM:, Pgs will _regularly_ crash when clicking between the
pointer icon and the text icon. That's the kind of problem that leads me
to say-"non-functional". Just no excuse for that. I can't imagine Pgs
_"needing"_ 200K to put a cursor on the screen. I think that is a coding
problem. (It _doesn't_ happen when in the 3 meg mode).
The memory thing only happened when trying to print. While V. 1.8
would (apparently) check how much RAM: was available and not try to take
more than was there-which is my guess as to why it would crash when trying
to print.
Now, if I could just figure out why documents larger than 8.5" by 11"
print out with a couple of inches missing…
