How can you find out the Total Amount of RAM / and how much RAM is free in Blitz, so that you can check if the PC running your game/code has enough memory?

Cheers.

I use this, show how much is being used:

UsedMemory#=((TotalVidMem()/1024)-(AvailVidMem()/1024))
Text 10,10,(UsedMemory#/1024)

oh use this to show total memory:

totalmemory()/1024

BTW these show memeory in KB instead of the normal Bytes. 1024kb=1MB.
