In case anyone's having difficulty getting this to work, here's the C code:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#include <osbind.h>
#include <stdio.h>

main() 
{ 
	printf("%ld bytes free.\n", Malloc(-1L)); 
}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A binary is included below, uuencoded.   Alias mem to free.ttp.

(Sorry for boring you C programmers.)
