Greetings:

I would like to know if anyone has experience running large executable
programs build on DOS with the First Ada 16bit Alsys compiler? We are
running into many problems as the executable must run in 'real' mode.

I have heard that there are memory saver routines which split the
executable into a smaller .exe and a .ovl (overlay) files. After
splitting the executable, the file may be run under 286 DOS.

Any information would surely help.

Thanks in advance (you may mail directly to me and I will post a summary)
