Hi folks. More dumb-o questions. I'm trying to grab some memory from the system. The call that makes some sense is AllocMem Correct? The sample in Abacus Amiga Machine Language has an error. It uses A6 twice (one after the other) I "think"it means to load the Mode into D1. Now if thats true (and I think it is) what are the choices? I have looked at Mapping the Amiga and Amiga Programers Handbook. Neither one (to stupid me) spells it out enough for me to understand. I'm looking for something like D1=0 for Chip or 1 for Fast Ram etc. I also am a tad puzzeled by releasing this memory. There are a few different routines but It's not clear which one is to be used. Thanks in advance for any help… Oh yes it's not clear what the size of mode should be. Word is my guess but… Again it's not clear.
