I would like information on how DOS manages memory with the int 21H
services of allocate memory and setblock.  In particular, given the
PSP of a program, can I track the chain of blocks allocated to the
program.  It seems reasonable that I can, since DOS has to know which
blocks to free once a program terminates.  I would like to track the
chain of blocks to determine exactly how much memory my program is
using.  Also, I need to be able to free the chain, then recreate it
at a later time.
