Is there a way to determine from *inside* a program the
used and available memory?
I have an application which sometimes crash when the user opens too many
windows. It would be nice to warn the user at least before opening
more windows.
thankx,
:-) marc

help, /memory, output=output gives you at least the amount of memory
used by IDL. Don't know how to determine the available memory.
