I am trying to start Squeak with a larger than normal memory. The command line I am using is:
S:\squeak\Squeak2_2\SqueakBeta S:\squeak\Squeak2_2\Squeak2.2.image -memory: 10000000
(all on one line, of course) The -memory: switch is being ignore by the VM startup code, and is being interpreted by the return from snapsot code as a filename to load in.
Is there something I can put in the .ini file to change the default memory size?
Is there a help page in general for the Windows VM... I recall sing one once, but can't seem to find it now.
Thanks, Mike Klein

The switch is -memory: megabytes (before the image name and _with_ a space), like this:
C:\Squeak2.2\SqueakBeta.exe -memory: 32 Squeak2.2.image
[The Win32 VMs default to 16MB of memory.]

Two notes: 1) The VM options have to come before the image name so that VM args can be distuinguished from image arguments. 2) The argument given to the -memory: switch is given in *MEGA*bytes. So the right order would be
Squeak -memory: 10 Squeak2.2.image
BTW, the default for memory is 16MB.
