Short: Allocates memory at a specified address (AllocAbs for CLI).
Author: Staffan Hämälä
Uploader: Staffan Hämälä
Version: 1.0
Type: dev/misc
This is a little (676 bytes) program that I wrote because I needed to
allocate memory, so that the memory would not be overwritten by other
programs.
To be more specific, I was decrunching old demos/intros that was
crunched with some absolute-address crunchers (like TetraPacker etc.).
The program is for OS2.0 and up only, and must be started from CLI/Shell.
To start the program, enter 'Allocate' followed by the address to the
beginning of the memory block to allocate and the size of the block in
bytes entered in hex.
