[bit.listserv.sas-l] Undocumented SAS-PC Display Manager commands

MARSH@NCSUSTAT.BITNET (02/28/90)

Jean Hardy asked about two undocumented SAS-PC DM commands.  The ones I
know are:

  CDE - informs user what the largest memory block (out of conventional
        memory - below the 640K DOS limit) amount is.  In other words,
        this should reflect the size of the graph, GLM model, etc. that
        could be run.  I believe you should see a value around
        240000 (bytes) with no
S EMS and around 420000 with EMS.  These values may vary.

  CDM - shows the load addresses (memory locations) of the SAS modules
        that have been used.  If you are using EMS and know where the
        EMS paging is located, at least some of your display manager
        modules should be located in this EMS paging area.  Some EMS
        software calls this paging area the "window" or "window
        address".

These commands will work with EMS being used; indeed, they were
designed to help SAS Inst. determine whether EMS was being properly
used.
