Hy,
At first I questioned myself, does Euphoria store all those names in
memory and where's that. So I simply made a Eu programm that peeks
as many bytes from memory starting with 0 and dumping that to file.
Is that the bootsector at 0?
I could only find 1.208.320 bytes of the 32MB.
I was working in WinNT4 so the dos-window just disapeared with no =
further notice.
That's the first thing.
I found interresting things, and found also ofcours the famous #B8000 =
adress with
constant repeating {0,7} strings. I counted them by filling 8 times =
25*80*2 bytes,
but after that were still 768 bytes to fill which had the same {0,7} =
pattern.
Does this have to do with larger screens or different =
text-mode-resolutions?
I haven't checked this, but there's a huge blank area before #B8000.
Are that the graphicmode screens?
BTW. I also found a guines-book-of-record record of "Causeway" labels, =
what's up with that?
Thanks,
PQ

I don't think you will see the names in memory because the are probably
stored as numbers that represent the names.
