I have a 386 machine with 1MB of memory. I have some UNIX code that processes 24-bit images and uses large chunks of memory. In the process of porting the code to DOS, I ran into the 640K barrier. The code I'm porting malloc()'s space as necessary, until it hits the 640K wall. I'm purchasing 4MB of Extended memory, and I would like to just malloc() space out of Extended memory, can someone point me to information -- or existing C libraries -- that will help me out? I'm using TC 2.0 by the way. Craig Engelhorn cae@att.com
