Peppe,

 Not sure. I tried a bit of fiddling. The current options seem to be:-

*OPTIONS IN EFFECT*     SIZE =   81920  BUF =    2768  LINECNT = 57  SPACE1,
FLAGW,   SEQ,   SOURCE
 *OPTIONS IN EFFECT*       DMAP,   PMAP, NOCLIST,   SUPMAP,   XREF,   LOAD,
NODECK, APOST, NOTRUNC,   LIB,   VERB
 *OPTIONS IN EFFECT*       ZWB

It runs ok in a VM with between 9Meg and 15Meg of store allocated. It does
not work in 8Meg, which is a bit of a surprise 
but also it does not work in 16M which is more of a surprise, but not
entirely un-expected.... 

Perhaps its time to read the manual as to me that size look like 80K not
8Megs which is what I thought it was....

Dave
