Das Programm muß man nicht unbedingt kennen, es stammt aus einer Zeit,
die lange vergessen ist, und der Programmierer hatte halt Probleme,
die zum Glück Vergangenheit sind.
Zum Beispiel "64k".

Ein Programm zur Dateiübertragung, das müßte 1990/1991 gewesen sein,
als Speicherplatz unter jenem Betrübssystem tatsächlich recht knapp war.

The Overlay Version
-------------------
There is now one and only one version of SZMODEM.EXE distributed in the
package. Before, we had three seperate versions configured for various
memory requirements, but from now on, there is only one. For those of
you who are curious, the version of SZModem distributed is the overlay
one (used to be SZMODOVR.EXE). ***I did this since the old SZMODEM.EXE
was gobbling up too much memory to be useful *** and the SZMODSML.EXE
version wasn't saving enough space to justify it.

Und ein paar Zeilen später:

SZTetris!
---------
New with version 1.50, a game called "SZTetris" has been included in the
games (F8) menu. The game is your standard Tetris type game. You can use
the arrow keys to move the falling blocks, the J,K,L keys, or the keypad
w/numlock (4,5,6,2). The game is in its eary stages and may still have
a couple of glitches in it.

woran könnte es wohl liegen, dass das Programm "was gobbling up to much
memory"? Vielleicht am Tetris?
Oder am Chat? Am "built in mail reader"?

Creeping featuritis ist echt keine neue Krankheit.
