     There are two PD-style DOS programs called "mark" and "release".
The "mark" prgram allows you to place index-tabs in memory. So if you
wanted to clear out all TSR's back to the last "mark", you would 
simply type "release". I usually place a mark right after booting and
then I can play around with TSR's et al and when I'm finished I can
just do a "release" and have cleasn memory again.
