- Virtually all of the documentation you will need is in the definition module.
- However, I have found one problem that I didn't document, in hopes that it
- might one day be eliminated: the routines for creating a MenuStrip inexplicably
- eat about 20K of memory (keep reading). I have checked my code several times and
- am quite confident that the problem does not lie there. I suspect TDI, but that
- is because I hate them, their compiler and ESPECIALLY their editor (not simply
- non-functional, but actually anti-functional).

- There is a simple and easy solution to THE RIDDLE OF THE MISSING 20K: call
- DestroyHeap (in module Storage) at the end of your program. Since I use NEW,
- DISPOSE, ALLOCATE and DEALLOCATE for all my structure creations/destructions,
- then DestroyHeap will obliterate any stray structures I (or MUCH more likely,
- TDI) may have left lying around. I have yet to encounter a situation where this
- didn't free all the memory used by a Modula-2 program. See, that wasn't so bad!
