Agreed. But I think I can name a program that fits the description: Excellence! 3.0. It comes with VM, a built-in virtual memory manager to let you work on docs bigger than system memory. Works only Excellence!, not other programs. It comes with tool types to let you customize the feature (e.g, how much spooling and when to start). However, the developer warns that using VM could cause nasty things to happen to your system. E.g., if you don't quit E! normally — say, you're forced to reboot while a VM file is open — your hard drive could be corrupted. I've got a 12-meg system, so I just keep the VMM turned off.
