Hi Mike

The system() command allows you to call an external program outside of
Euphoria. I'm not too sure what you mean by "doing it to get the most
available free memory", unless you mean calling the DOS command "MEM" to
get a display of the available free memory on your PC. In that case, you
simply do a system("MEM",0)

Write back if I am wrong.

David, I think you did wrong. :)
I think he meant to run an external program and LEAVE most available free
memory.
How? :)

Hi there Izchak

He already corrected me, and I have offered one technique to get more
memory to run called programs. Art also added some pretty good tips as
well.
