Hello Arkady, >>> 5. MS-command.com places its (resized) segment with environment right after >>> itself (original segment preserved not freed), FreeCOM places environment >>> into UMB, but, as I understand, with LAST_FIT. >>> I think, (5) should be changed (LAST_FIT to BEST_FIT). te>> I think (5) should be NOT changed te>> (hint: what happens if you don't have UMB's)
> In this case memory will be allocated in the _best_ segment (shortest, > which may fit) or after command.com (as with MS-DOS), if there is no > fragmentation. one more hint: command.com swaps itself into XMS ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by Black Hat Briefings & Training.
