A friend is looking for a DOS utility which will search memory,
both low and high, and report if a particular program has been
loaded.  For instance, if the utility is called "findprog",
you might enter "findprog mytsr" to see if "mytsr" has been loaded.
Does anyone know of a utility like this?  Even better if it
returns the address, I suppose, but the simple fact of its
existence or non-existence being returned would be sufficient.
(He's setting up networks and wants, as I understand it, to
be able to test for drivers which someone else may or may not
have loaded. I have NO DETAILS on this, it's just a paraphrase
of what he told me, and he doesn't have Internet access yet.)

A possible kludge to obviate the necessity of using a utility
like the above would be to use MARK and RELEASE, but his versions
are REAL old... does anyone have the latest versions of these?

PLEASE no flames, this is for a friend as I said... email,
respond here, or call the 800 number below.  THANKS!
