Switcher 2.0 bombs when you overrun its memory allocation.  Switcher
2.6 solves this problem but gives you 20K less memory to use.
Switcher 3.0 will supposedly be uploaded to Compuserve "real
soon now".

To run four applications with Switcher 2.0 turn off save screen
and/or allocate less than 128K for some or all of the applications.
Keep an eye on the available memory and be sure you don't exceed
it.
