Sharing XMS and EMS memory

EMM386 provides EMS/VCPI memory for programs that require it by converting
XMS memory to EMS/VCPI memory. When it is loaded, EMM386 reserves the amount
of memory specified by the MIN switch for use as EMS/VCPI memory (the
default value is 256K). Once this amount of XMS memory is reserved, it is
always available as EMS/VCPI memory and no longer available as XMS memory.
EMM386 may be able to convert additional amounts of XMS memory to EMS/VCPI
memory, up to the amount specified by the MEMORY parameter. EMM386 returns
the additional amount back to XMS memory when it is no longer needed as
EMS/VCPI memory.
