; It can also be used to limit the maximum memory available to a compiled
|
|
; BASIC program. The option '/M:nnn' is used on the command line, where
|
|
; nnn is the number of K-bytes the program is limited to. If no, /M option
|
|
; is specified, no memory limitation takes place. For example, '/M:64' would
|
|
; limit the program to 64*1024 bytes. The range for nnn is 64 to 1024.

; This routine gets control before BASIC, does its handiwork, and then

|
|

; If BASMAIN is unable to limit memory as requested, a message is displayed
