Stack(V1.3 in c:) (2.x/3.x internal)
NAME
Stack - Set or display the current stack size.
SYNOPSIS
Stack Size
DESCRIPTION
Stack is used to set aside a certain amount of memory
for the active CLI. This memory area is a buffer area
used by programs to work in. The default stack size is
4000 bytes, which is enough for most programs. If the
stack is too small the program won't run.
Many programs require more stack than the default
setting of the Amiga's stack will give them. You can use
this command to display the current amount of stack (by
using Stack without an argument), or you can change the
current amount of stack by providing an integer argument
to stack.
You can check the stack size of all active system
tasks by using the Status command.
KEYWORDS
Size
The bytes of memory set aside that you wish to assign
as stack space for the currently active CLI. If you don't
use the Size keyword, then the current stack size is
displayed.
EXAMPLE
1. To obtain a good healthy stack for programs:
Stack 10240
2. To display the stack size of the currently active
CLI:
