I'd also be interested in hearing about this.  Think of the other uses:

	I use Windows/386, which has a LIM expanded memory driver built in
	I also use Dpaint II Extended, which needs a separate LIM driver
		(I can't get a single &(*&)(* DOS application to run under
		 windows) and a mouse driver.

I'd really like to be able to load the separate LIM driver and mouse driver
at run time, and then subsequently remove them when I finish using Dpaint,
so they don't take memory away from Windows/386.  (Yes, I know about ONCALL
and several other clones - this will handle MOUSE.COM but not the EMM driver
.SYS file)
