Some people had a discussion on Malloc/Fsfirst(next)/40folders from
which I inferred that after doing Fsfirst you should always Fsfnext
until failure, or you will leave a permanently allocated buffer in
your wake.  Is this correct?  If not, what is the truth?  Are there
other allocation fee-churs like this?

Second question: is there a way to get docs on the lineA functions,
other than becoming a registered developer (that'd be a joke!)?  If
so, how.  If not, why not?

Thanks,
Rob Carriere
