This is not a so big bug coz the memory goes down by less than 1k at a time and each time PP is left, memory is released... If you run out of memory, just leave PowerPPL and reenter... (There is a Heap viewer on the top right corner of the screen... If this value is going dangerously down, leave and rerun...) Comments : * Thanks to Clark Development, Inc for a so good PCBoard & PPLC :)) -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
