Short: Shows memory fragmentation via gfx Author: thomas.richter@alumni.tu-berlin.de (Thomas Richter) Uploader: thomas richter alumni tu-berlin de (Thomas Richter) Type: util/moni Version: 2.09 Requires: Any Amiga, V39 recommended but not required. Architecture: m68k-amigaos Almost unlike all other memory meters, ShowMem does NOT display the total number of bytes available (this is done by the workbench anyways), but displays all free memory chunks in a graphical way. Hence the degree of fragmentation and the size of available memory is very easy to see. _____________________________________________________________________________ Changes made for 2.09: Added a workaround in case SetFunction() runs into the memory allocation itself. Added cleaning the cache before using the memory allocation patch. Changes made for 2.08: Due to some math overflows, ShowMem failed if just too much memory is in the system. This has been fixed as ShowMem uses now even 64 bit math for some calculations. Remember that this program was written in 1993.... Changes made for 2.07: The bottom border memory count could run into the window by as much as one pixel for larger fonts. Fixed. Changes made for 2.06: ShowMem could possibly mess the window border in worst case. Fixed. Changes made for 2.05: Made the colors for the display configurable, but this requires V39. Changes made for 2.04: Fixed a stupid bug that could have caused enforcer hits in very rare cases (in case the number of MemHeaders changed while ShowMem was investigating this list). Added a dummy BeginRefresh/EndRefresh to be 100% Intuition conformal. Re-arranged the AllocMem/FreeMem patches to be able to run ShowMem with MemSniff installed. However, please note that in general MemSniff DOES NOT allow any patches on top of its own patch, ShowMem is an exception. Changes made for 2.03: Forgot to set a flag correctly, AUTOADJUST did not work. Fixed! Changes made for 2.02: Passed illegal parameters to the RectFill() call. Ooops! Changes made for 2.01: Added LEFTEDGE/TOPEDGE/WIDTH/HEIGHT tooltypes to be able to re- position the window freely. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The THOR-Software Licence (v3, January 2nd 2021) This License applies to the computer programs known as "ShowMem" and the corresponding documentation, known as ".guide" files.
