  @cindex memory full

!   If you get the error message @samp{Virtual memory exceeded}, save your
! modified buffers with @kbd{C-x s}.  This method of saving them has the
! smallest need for additional memory.  Emacs keeps a reserve of memory
! which it makes available when this error happens; that should be enough
! to enable @kbd{C-x s} to complete its work.
  
!   Once you have saved your modified buffers, you can exit this Emacs job
! and start another, or you can use @kbd{M-x kill-some-buffers} to free
! space in the current Emacs job.  If you kill buffers containing a
! substantial amount of text, you can safely go on editing.  Emacs refills
! its memory reserve automatically when it sees sufficient free space
! available, in case you run out of memory another time.
  
    Do not use @kbd{M-x buffer-menu} to save or kill buffers when you run
  out of memory, because the buffer menu needs a fair amount of memory

!   If you get the error message @samp{Virtual memory exceeded}, save

! has the smallest need for additional memory.  Emacs keeps a reserve of
! memory which it makes available when this error happens; that should

! reserve has been used, @samp{!MEM FULL!} appears at the beginning of
! the mode line, indicating there is no more reserve.
  
!   Once you have saved your modified buffers, you can exit this Emacs
! session and start another, or you can use @kbd{M-x kill-some-buffers}
! to free space in the current Emacs job.  If this frees up sufficient
! space, Emacs will refill its memory reserve, and @samp{!MEM FULL!}
! will disappear from the mode line.  That means you can safely go on
! editing in the same Emacs session.
