- Hi. I have Watcom C++ v10 and I need a way to find out how much free
- RAM is left available to allocate. I've played with _heapwalk() and
- memaval etc and they only report about 3k available. I have 32mb of
- RAM. I'm doing this with DOS/4GW and wpp386. If anyone knows a way
- of reporting the entire FREE RAM space I'd be greatful if they were to
- share it with me. Preferably I'd like to know if there is a standard
- way of finding the entire free "core" area under any C or C++ system.
- I there is none i think it's a gapping hole in the standard.
