{Operating system}s like {Microsoft Windows} or {OS/2} provide
the possibility to run 16-bit (segmented) programs as well as
32-bit programs. The former possibility exists for {backward
compatibility} and the latter is usually meant to be used for
new software development.

386BSD

A {free software} version of the {BSD Unix}
{operating system} originally derived from the generally
available parts of the "{Berkeley Net Release/2}". William
Jolitz played a key rЇle and there have been many
contributors. Many new and innovative features have been
added to 386BSD since its original release in June 1992. An
unofficial patchkit, available from many {anonymous FTP}
archives, solves many of the problems associated with 386BSD
Version 0.1. In addition, many common Unix packages have been
ported.

386BSD has been superseded by {FreeBSD} and {NetBSD}.

386SPART.PAR

(Or "{WIN386.SWP}") 386SPART.PAR is a
{hidden file} created by {Windows 3.1} for use as {virtual
memory} {swap file}. It is generally found in the {root
directory}, however it may appear elsewhere (typically in the
WINDOWS directory). Its size depends on how much virtual
memory you have set up under (Control Panel) Enhanced under
Virtual Memory. If you move or delete this file Windows will
complain the next time you start it with a Swap File error.
