SH-Ware AvailMem 1.00
Written by Sami Klemola
⌐1995. All Rights Reserved.
This archive brings you a replacement for the standard Avail command, or
rather a complimentary tool. I found the figures produced by Avail to be
too accurate! I thought that I - and possibly nobody else less programmers
- need to know the amount of free memory to the exact amount. So I wrote a
command that operates identically with Avail, but gives the information
rounded to full kilobytes.
I think it is easier to comprehend how much memory there actually is free
and in-use as the information is presented in kilobytes. The output of
the program looks almost identical to that of Avail, except for the smaller
figures:
Type Available In-Use Maximum Largest
Chip 1912k 134k 2047k 1912k
Fast 474k 1061k 1536k 198k
Total 2386k 1195k 3583k 2110k
However, it is possible to operate sham just like Avail by specifying the
option BYTE. When this option is specified, the output will be exact and
remind very much that of Avail. This program is freeware and you may use
and redistribute it freely, but do not disassemble or change it in any way.
