Using the MS-DOS version of diff 1.15, I occasionally get an error
message reporting that memory has been exhausted (this on a machine that
has 15 megs of extended memory).  Do other users of the
MS-DOS version get the same error?  Can someone point me to an ftp site
for a version of diff that has been made to work with VCPI, DPMI, or EMS
under MS-DOS?

Thanks,
