How can BiBTeX capacity be enlarged?

To increase the BibTeX functional memory space:

  • Run PCTeX
  • Pull down the Settings menu
  • Choose Default Settings
  • Click on the BibTeX Arguments tab
  • In the field labeled "Option String" enter one of the following values:
    -8 (the default which forces 8-bit mode)
    -8 -B (doubles the function capacity)
    -8 -H (even higher function capacity)
    -8 -W (the maximum)
