I'm looking for an XMS memory manager package that can make XMS available
to the heap via malloc() or new calls transparently. Protected mode
interfaces do not qualify for my application. Most that I've seen will
do this, but require malloc() calls to use their custom handles, and since
I cannot afford the time on the project to rewrite all the calls to new
in Turbo Vision, I need something transparent.

Commercial with tech support is a must, though if anyone knows of an
exceptional shareware/freeware package, I will give it a look.

Your help is appreciated, email please and I'll summarize. Please no
"meeto" mail, I do promise to summarize.
