Short:    Shows memory fragmentation via gfx
Author:   thor@einstein.math.tu-berlin.de (Thomas Richter)
Uploader: thor@einstein.math.tu-berlin.de (Thomas Richter)
Version:  2.08
Type:     util/moni
Requires: Any Amiga, V39 recommended but not required.

Almost unlike all other memory meters, ShowMem does NOT display the total
number of bytes available (this is done by the workbench anyways), but
displays all free memory chunks in a graphical way. Hence the degree of
fragmentation and the size of available memory is very easy to see.

_____________________________________________________________________________

Changes made for 2.08:

	Due to some math overflows, ShowMem failed if just
	too much memory is in the system. This has been fixed as ShowMem 
	uses now even 64 bit math for some calculations. Remember that this 
	program was written in 1993....

Changes made for 2.07:

	The bottom border memory count could run into the window by as
	much as one pixel for larger fonts. Fixed.

Changes made for 2.06:

	ShowMem could possibly mess the window border in worst case. Fixed.
	
Changes made for 2.05:

	Made the colors for the display configurable, but this requires
	V39.

Changes made for 2.04:

	Fixed a stupid bug that could have caused enforcer hits in
	very rare cases (in case the number of MemHeaders changed while
	ShowMem was investigating this list).
	Added a dummy BeginRefresh/EndRefresh to be 100% Intuition 
	conformal.
	Re-arranged the AllocMem/FreeMem patches to be able to run
	ShowMem with MemSniff installed. However, please note that
	in general MemSniff DOES NOT allow any patches on top of its
	own patch, ShowMem is an exception.	

Changes made for 2.03:

	Forgot to set a flag correctly, AUTOADJUST did not work. 
	Fixed!

Changes made for 2.02:

	Passed illegal parameters to the RectFill() call. Ooops!

Changes made for 2.01:

	Added LEFTEDGE/TOPEDGE/WIDTH/HEIGHT tooltypes to be able to re-
	position the window freely.
