I may have overlooked something in the docs but is there currently a way to retrieve the max and avail vid mem?

That's a good question, it would be a very handy feature.

Er yeah, same question as above. I've been through the docs but there doesn't seem to be anything documented.

Nothing available yet. Maybe something more would be available with a GUI module, whereby you might be able to access the screen/window that the context is tied to.

Another angle is that every o/s has its own libraries of interfaces, ie API's, ... if BlitzMax could access the native API's you could possibly get access to some kind of functions that would be useful.

I'm also still looking for sysrem memory funcs.
Lets hope this basic stuff is added soon.
