- MemInfo V1.0 © 1996 by Henri Veisterä
- =====================================
- -------------------------------------
-
-
- Intro
- =====
-
- MemInfo is a simple util run from the CLI. OS 2.0 (V36) is required.
-
- MemInfo displays information on your current memory configuration. It can
- be used as an replacement for Avail as it offers all the same options.
-
- The idea for this util came from the AMIGA Realtime Monitor by Franz-Josef
- Mertens.
-
- I use MemInfo to see how much I have the really fast 32-bit mem left since
- Avail tells me only the total fast mem values and I have both 16-bit and
- 32-bit fast mem.
-
- MemInfo is PD. The source is included for your enjoyment.

- Output

-
- A sample output:
-
- Lower Upper Pri Max In-Use Free Largest Attrib Name
- 08C00030 09000000 8 4095k 1225k 2870k 2807k P-F--- CSA 32-bit DRAM
- 00280020 00400000 0 1535k 124k 1411k 1355k P-F-DK expansion memory
- 00003020 00100000 -10 1011k 394k 617k 615k PC-LDK chip memory
-
- total: 6641k 1743k 4898k 2807k
-
- 'Lower' is the lower memory bound for this Memory Region in hex.
- 'Upper' is the upper memory bound+1 for this Memory Region in hex.
- 'Pri' is the current allocation priority of this Region (higher first).
- 'Max' is the total amount of memory in this Region in kilobytes.
- 'In-Use' is the amount of memory currently in use in this Region.
- 'Free' is the amount of memory currently available in this Region.
- 'Largest' is the largest free block of memory you have in this Region.
-
- 'Attrib' are the characteristics of this Region:
- P = Region can be used as PUBLIC memory
- (must not be mapped, swapped, or otherwise made non-addressable.)
- C = Region is CHIP memory ie. addressable by the Amiga custom chips
- (screen memory, images that are blitted, audio data, copper lists, sprites)
- F = Region is FAST memory
- (non-chip memory)
- L = Region is LOCAL memory
- (This is memory that will not go away after the CPU RESET instruction.)
- D = Region is memory that is within the address range of 24-bit DMA devices.
- (Zorro-II)
- K = Region can be used as KICK memory
- (Memory that can be used for KickTag stuff)
-
- 'Name' is the name for this Region.
- 'Total' are the total sums of the 'Max', 'In-Use' and 'Free' and the
- largest of 'Largest'.
