Guys... Casually peeking at Freecom source, branch MAIN, init.c v 1.31,
Freecom's rev 1.31 (Excerpt, from Sourceforge CVS, w/ line numbers) [code] 437 env_resizeCtrl |= ENV_USEUMB | ENV_ALLOWMOVE | ENV_LASTFIT; 438 if(forceLow) 439 env_resizeCtrl &= ~ENV_USEUMB; 440 if(newEnvSize > 16 && newEnvSize < 32767) 441 env_setsize(0, newEnvSize); [/code] et caetera, etc... I'm not an expert in C, not even close to a novice... With this duly noted, it appears it won't be hard for you Freecom code contributors / revewers (is this not you, Tom E.?) to edit the above module and possibly a handful of dependencies so that FreeCOM eventually will request the environment block using "Firstfit" instead of "Lastfit" strategy, at least when allocating from low memory. I don't care as much if it uses "lastfit" when the request is effectively UMBs only, although I'm not sure what is to be gained by using 'lastfit' even in upper memory. Hoping someone will take the challenge, w/ respect -- Cerno ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Windows: Build for Windows Store. http://p.sf.net/sfu/windows-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
