--------------------------------------------------------------------------- Allocate v1.0 Sunday 02-Oct-94 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Introduction ~~~~~~~~~~~~ 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. Example: ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Allocate 1FE000 1FFF This will allocate the memory from $1fe000 to $1fffff. The '$' sign must not be used. I'll quit here, because I'm too lazy to write big documents, and I don't want to put more effort into the documents than to the program...
