Avail(V1.3) ARP User's Manual Avail(V1.3)
NAME
Avail - Report memory statistics.
SYNOPSIS
Avail CHIP/s FAST/s TOTAL/s FLUSH/s
DESCRIPTION
Avail reports on the amount of memory available in the
system, its type, how much of each type is in use and is
free, and the largest single block of memory of each type.
This command is useful with shell scripts to determine if
there is enough memory available to load a program, file or
graphic before you actually perform the load.
OPTIONS
CHIP Reports the total amount of free chip memory
FAST Reports the total amount of free fast memory
TOTAL
Reports the total of all free memory, both fast and
chip.
FLUSH
This option (not available with the Commodore Avail),
will force all unused devices, libraries and other
resources out of the system, which gives the most
accurate report of available memory.
