- A friend is looking for a DOS utility which will search memory,
- both low and high, and report if a particular program has been
- loaded. For instance, if the utility is called "findprog",
- you might enter "findprog mytsr" to see if "mytsr" has been loaded.
- Does anyone know of a utility like this? Even better if it
- returns the address, I suppose, but the simple fact of its
- existence or non-existence being returned would be sufficient.
- (He's setting up networks and wants, as I understand it, to
- be able to test for drivers which someone else may or may not
- have loaded. I have NO DETAILS on this, it's just a paraphrase
- of what he told me, and he doesn't have Internet access yet.)
-
- A possible kludge to obviate the necessity of using a utility
- like the above would be to use MARK and RELEASE, but his versions
- are REAL old... does anyone have the latest versions of these?
-
- PLEASE no flames, this is for a friend as I said... email,
- respond here, or call the 800 number below. THANKS!
