Description:
	Geoworks version 1.2 works fine under DR DOS but it does require
        some special configuration. Files need to be set at 120. This
        may seem like a high figure but it will only use about 9K of RAM
        and if you are using EMM386 no impact need occur on conventional
        memory. Ensemble will not even begin with files equal to 30.

        TaskMAX can be initialized only with CTRL-ESC. No other hot keys
	can be used. Also end-users may find that they have no keyboard
        in their other tasks. We have also received reports that even if
        it does switch TaskMAX will eventually fail. At this time we
        cannot recommend the use of TaskMAX with Geoworks Ensemble
        v.1.2.

	Any version of Geoworks prior to 1.2 will not work under DR DOS 6.

        Geoworks uses XMS memory when available and will use the HMA if
        it is available.

        There have been some reports that Geoworks will not run when
        SuperPCK is loaded into upper memory (/&U+). If you are having
        trouble loding Ensemble try the switch /&U-. Also if you are
        using SuperPCK in expanded memory (/A+) advanced disk transfers
        must be turned off with a /H-.
