OS/2

Summary:

In general, Microsoft language packages such as C, FORTRAN, Macro

Assembler and Pascal can use virtual memory under OS/2.

OS/2 will make use of virtual memory if memman=MOVE is set in the

CONFIG.OS2 or CONFIG.SYS file, physical RAM becomes full, and there is

enough free disk space to swap to. OS/2 is generally not dependent on

the nature of the application for using virtual memory, except for

device drivers that may require fixed segments of physical RAM.
