Does anybody know of any program that can remove a TSR application and
free up the memory it uses ?
I need to find a way to remove the LAST loaded TSR, for which I believe
that there must exist a way. Any help is greatly appreciated. Pointers
to internal DOS tables also may help.
Please, send replies to: camargo@cs.columbia.edu

There's a package available on Simtel20, as well several other places which consists of 2 files: TSRSRC26.ARC and TSRCOM26.ARC, which are sources, .EXE's, and .COMs for a whole bunch of neat TSR management utilities. The two you'd be most interested in are MARK and RELEASE, which marks a memory location, and RELEASE, which restores the system state (interrupt vectors and a whole lot of other stuff) to what it was when the system was MARKed. These programs have proved themselves to be really good and removing even some of the most uncooperative TSR's from memory. Hope this is some help. +----------------+-----------------------------------------+ | Andy Silverman | Internet: silver@eniac.seas.upenn.edu | | "Why?" | Compu$erve: 72261,531 | +----------------+-----------------------------------------+
