-y: Allocate dynamic memory

This option changes the default size for a dynamically allocated memory buffer. The buffers are indicated by a one- or two-character abbreviation such as op. For example, the option -yop200 allocates 200 units for the op buffer.

To query the default allocations, just say -y.

When FWEB runs out of space, it usually (but not always) issues a message telling one which -y command to use in order to increase the allocations. (Someday it will reallocate automatically.) One may wish to add some such options to the .fweb file.

For a more detailed discussion of memory allocation and a menu of the various dynamic arrays, see Memory allocation.
