	To quote the OS9 (6809) Operating System Manual:

207 MEMORY FULL The process address space is full or your computer does
not have sufficient memory to perform the specified task.

237 RAM FULL No free random access memory is available: The system
address space is full or there is no physical memory available when
requested by the operating system in the system state.

	I didn't remember that the system process space error was 237...
