SYNTAX: BATCHRAM
BATCHRAM ? {displays a useful help screen}


This program's sole job is to determine how much memory is avail-
able for programs. The result -- divided by ten -- is returned
as the DOS ERRORLEVEL. You can therefore make decisions within
batch files based on the memory you have available. Consult your
DOS manual to learn how to use the ERRORLEVEL variable.

BatchRam comes with a demonstration batch file. Type "BATCHTST"
at the DOS prompt to see the program swing into action.


Special notes for advanced users:

BatchRam takes into account the current DOS environment
and its own memory requirements. The result is divided
by 10,240 & truncated (not rounded) to generate a legal
ERRORLEVEL value.


This is a public-domain program, so you can use it at no charge.
But I hope you'll thank me if you like it. Programmers need to
feel important, too! A postcard or message is all it takes.
