I just tried this with WIN386 v 2.11.  My WIN.INI file is 26K.  Notepad
can not edit it without the above statements.  So I tried

[notepad]
size=64

for 64K.  It didn't work either.  I don't know if I'm doing this right.
It isn't documented anywhere I can find it.

Martin did say that he hadn't tried it for a long time.  Maybe it worked
with an earlier release.

Oh well.  I guess I'll just have to wait for 3.0 to come out.  I hope the
protected mode stuff will allow larger files.  If it doesn't, I'll be in
the market for something...
