Description: '
[bvm': I think it is not too hard to make Lisp.run be able to do'
'
Lisp {DSK2}FOO.SYSOUT/I'
'
but I have never heard any strong wishes for it.  Speak up if there are.]'
'
We have run into the situation down here where a customer wants Lisp, Loops (in the form of a sysout), and Smalltalk on the same machine.  If we deliver a machine with this configuration, there is no room left for user files.'
'
If we could avoid having the second vmem file on the second partition, it would be nice in those situations.'
'
How hard is "not too hard"?  I would not put this high on the list of priorities, but it would be real handy for those people without a fileserver.  10000 to 12000 pages is a lot of extra room.'
-----'
NPRDC and Honeywell in Minnesota have also expressed this wish.   '

I''d guess Priority': "Unlikely". We are unlikely to do any major enhancements that only affect Dolphin users.'
