 XMS is the eXtended Memory Specification that is embodied in HIMEM.SYS
 and some other extended memory managers.  386 UR/FORTH 1.16 is
 compatible with XMS (unlike the previous version 1.15) but also remains
 compatible with VCPI and can run in the absence of either XMS or VCPI as
 well.  The next version will be DPMI/XMS/VCPI compatible, but we aren't
 sure how soon Phar Lap will release a DPMI-compatible DOS Extender so we
 can't give you a definite date on this.

 Why would you need to download the 386 UR/FORTH 1.16 update?  Mainly, if
 you are running in an XMS-aware environment such as Win 3.0 in Standard
 Mode or if you are by chance a beta tester for MS-DOS 5.0.
