Hi Rob, in "machine.e" it reads: global function allocate(positive_int n) so the biggest possible argument for allocate() is #3FFFFFFF (= 1 Gigabyte - 1 Byte). Maybe a short note about this limit in the documentation of allocate() would be useful. ( I think at the time when you implemented the allocate() function, it probably was hard to imagine that a normal PC would have more than 1 GB RAM. ) Regards, Juergen
