This is MemMometer V2.2
Previous versions of MemMometer were
V1.0 - Distributed to Peter Da Silva and Tom Rokicki, sent to Fred Fish
but was evidently not put on a Fish Disk. Problems with the program
were that it used the Delay(Arrgh) function for timing, that it had
an unrestricted menu selection for Slow-Fast memory that, with non-
existent memory, would result in a crash without prior warning.
Also, the codes for one, two, or three columns were separate, so it
was issued as three independently compiled programs.
V1.1 - Not Distributed. Delay() function replaced by VBLANK timer code
submitted to Usenet by Andy Finkel (a member of the CBM Amiga team).
V2.0 - Submitted to comp.sources/binaries.amiga but not circulated.
Menu item added for setting MemMometer's running priority. Requester
added to inform user that Slow-Fast memory selections in Warps mode
must be physically correct to avoid a system-fatal Guru 4 illegal
instruction exception trap due to non-existent memory.
V2.1 - Submitted to Fred Fish. Some changes to the 8 color workbench color
table to add the ability to recognize 0xffffffff checksums and to
conform more closely with CBM Workbench colors. Some corrections
to inaccuracies in the documentation. The requester also was fixed
to open with a link to the MemMometer window (titled "F") rather
than to an underlying dummy window titled "Mem Mometer". While it
renders the title somewhat more obscure, it limits the resource
request to one requester-sized window rather than two.
V2.2 - Menues changed to access 32-bit memory address range. Cold leaps
of Arctic faith are now met by the Warning Requester for any
request to change address range or address base for either the SF
or Fast memory menus in warps mode; this leaves no Tern unstoned.
Compiled with Aztec 3.6, should compile with Aztec 5.0 / 5.1 as well.
