If I'm wrong, somebody correct me.  Although it is not advertised, I 
think that one can still buy QUED from the same people who sell QUED/M.
QUED is disk based but doesn't include the macro capability which is
included in the ram based QUED/M.  I think QUED sells for $50 or so.

Chang's request reminds me what a hassle it is editing large files.
I think QUED/M is the best text editor around but when is comes to
editing really large files I have to either run from the Finder or
increase the QUED/M memory allocation to something larger than normal.
Either way is a bother.  It would be nice to have an option in QUED/M
that let you choose ram or disk-based just before you open.  Is this
possible?

Meanwhile, I noticed a new shareware utility that lets you set the
memory allocation as you launch a program.  That might save one the
bother of digging through the folders looking for the application
so you can "get info" and change the allocation.
