       Krótki tekst do MEM-TESTERA
       ---------------------------


    Program wskazuje ilość pamięci do-
datkowej w kompie. Wyświetla wartości
rejestru PORTB ($D301) włączające banki
oraz bity, które biorą udział w ich
przełączaniu.

    Program napisałem na WYRAŹNĄ SUGE-
STIĘ Dracona, że przydałby się taki
program.

    Więc jest.

    Short description for MEM-TESTER
    --------------------------------


     This program informs you about the
 the quantity of extra RAM in your
 Atari 8-bit computer.  The XE-type
 memory expansion is supported since
 MEM TESTER shows values of PORTB
 ($D301) register.  These values give
 access to the banks of extra memory.
 The PORTB bits used in switching banks
 are also shown (as inversed numbers).


   I wrote this program by the EXPLICIT
  REQUEST of Dracon.  He said that a
  program like this would be useful.

     So, it's done.

 P.S.
    Here's Dracon himself !

  I wanna add something to this DOC...
Firstly, some words about MEM TESTER:


 Pressing <ESC> lets you quit from this
 program to DOS. The contents of RAM-
 Disk will be intact after testing, so
 don't worry, be happy !!! As far as I
 know, JAKU-B has written the tester
 for extra memory up to 512 kB (RAMDisk
 512 kB, so total RAM in such expanded
 computer is 576 kB). So, if you have
 bigger size of extra RAM it may happen
 not all banks' value will be shown...
 Try to guess why... :)   But I think
 512 kB of RAMDISK is quite enough size
 Are there many programs (or users) for
 mem bigger than, let's say, 320 kB ??!

   Another note: please keep in mind I
 wanted this program just to give some
 informations about RAMDisks. Therefore
 you can also use it in order to e.g.
 configuring your RAMDisk for MyDOS
 (by "O" function). Please, don't write
 your own programs for only one RAM-
 Disk type (by switching banks suitable
 only in your RAMDISK...). Only LAAAAME
 coders do in this way and soon it
 turns out their programs don't work on
 machines having another RAMDisk type.
   Do write UNIVERSAL RAMDisk check
 routines to adjust your program to all
 (e.g. TOMS type & Compy Shop) expan-
 dings !!!  This is the way like Konop
 ("The Asskicker") and JAKU-B ("Disk-
 COPY") do !  Follow them !!!
