Hi, there, and while savoring your humor I just want to say that CWSDPMI is great just as is -- and actually solved a problem for me when I was expecting it _not_ to work. For previewing PostScript files, I use a DOS/4GW-based interpreter. Interestingly, CWSDPMI actually managed in a non-Emacs setting to supply virtual memory and make it possible to image files which fail under QEMM 7.53. This causes a crash under Emacs, but works a surprising number of times from the command line (MS-DOS 6.22). While I understand that DOS is no longer your area of interest, I certainly want to say _thank you_ for a gift that keeps on giving. Funny how that "Absolutely No Warranty" message actually gives a certain sense of security .
