JN> Actually, there are three ways. :)
DS> Add one more to the mix:
Well, the method you point out is only good for files roughly 64K larger
than would otherwise be the case, so we'll count it as "1/2" a method -
we're now up to 3 1/2. :)

Not to my knowledge.

Well, I got QEdit 4 under the Sysop discount - the OS/2 version comes
with the DOS version, all for about $55 (including S&H).  I had been
using the shareware version for quite some time unregistered (though I
will point out that I've gotten two different employers to register a
copy for me) and felt that it was about time that I registered it. :)
