NAME
       services.window	-  file	 containing  applications and their associated
       memory window ID

DESCRIPTION
       The file is used by applications using memory windows.

       Each line in the file associates an application with  a	memory	window
       ID.   A	line in the file cannot start with a space or tab.  The format
       is a unique name, defining the application, followed  by	 a  space/tab,
       followed by a unique window_id.	See the sample file in

       Memory  windows	allows	for  the  starting of a process in a unique or
       existing memory window where it can create and share objects with other
       applications in the same memory window.

       The  creation  of memory windows removes the system wide restriction on
       shared resources.  Without memory windows, 32-bit processes  were  lim‐
       ited  to 1.75 gigabytes of shared resources.  Each memory window allows
       for the definition of a unique 1 gigabyte quadrant and  since  multiple
       memory  windows can be defined in a system, the system total for shared
       resources can exceed the 1.75 gigabyte limitation for 32 bit processes.

       The definition of a memory window is only  available  for  32-bit  pro‐
       cesses.

       The file provides a central place for memory window applications to as‐
       sociate their memory window IDs.	 In the event  there  are  any	colli‐
       sions,  only  a	change in is necessary to select another memory window
       for the entire application.  If is not used, and user applications hard
       code  window  IDs  in  their startup scripts, collisions are not easily
       detected or easily fixed.

       A memory	 window	 application  uses  the	 command  getmemwindow(1M)  to
       extract the application's window_id from the file, and then passes that
       ID to the setmemwindow(1M).

       Using the same window ID places applications in the same memory window.
