I've got an Amiga 1000 w/512K and have a question regarding where
my memory keeps going and how to get it back.  Sometimes, I'll run a
program (usually something public domain) and when I'm done, not all
the memory returns (per the Workbench screen).  The problem gets really
bad when my 7 year old gets on and keeps putting screens to the background
to bring another one in.

I'll use the Amiga-n(m) sequence and get everything I see to terminate,
but am often left with under 100K, forcing me to warm-boot to get back
the MIA memory.

Is there a way under CLI (or any other less painfull) way to regain
the memory?  Also, where is it and how can I tell?  Thanks...
