I'm _trying_ to use Multifinder with just 1 meg.  All I want to do
is have Word 3.01 and Kermit running at the same time.  However,
Kermit demands this obscenely high (~384K) memory buffer; whenever
I check, the program is using only around a quarter of this buffer,
so I don't think this much is needed.  With this configuration, I
cannot open Word and Kermit at the same time.

Question:  what to do?  Can simpleton users control the memory
buffer sizes?

Apology:  I think this question's been answered before.  I admit
I'm a total buffoon for asking again, so don't bother calling me
one in a flamage.

cheers, from
