Description:

Virtual supplies virtual memory under RiscOS, allowing a task to believe it
has upto 24M of memory, yet have a draggable WimpSlot that can be set as
desired. However, it is very restrictive in what can be done - basically
only simple line based programs can be used. This is quite sufficient to run
C compilers, though, which is what it was originally intended for.  This
version has full support for gcc and the Desktop Development Environment.
