Title wd reports "Not Enough Memory" x0awhen started on a system with x0alarge environment size
Ref. No. QNX.000010465
Category(ies) Utilities, Development, Configuration
Issue wd reports that there isn't enough memory when executed.  We have plenty of free memory left - we do have a large environment (lots of environment variables set).  How do can we get wd to work?
Solution There are 3 different possible ways
to work around

- if possible, reduce your environment variables to < 3.4 KB

- Debug your application from
another console with "wd <pid>"

- Use a configuration file instead
of environment for passing startup
information to your program

Note:16-bit programs are handled in a different way than 32-bit programs, so this might cause
this problem.

"vedit" has the same problems when the environment is ~6.5K
