- On this page, INFOPLUS displays the programs currently in memory.
-
- All programs that are resident, or currently running, have a small
- signature in memory. If a program uses DOS to allocate data blocks, they
- will also show up here. This signature gives the name of the program (in
- most cases), and the memory it is using.
-
- MCB: Memory Control Block, the segment where the program is.
-
- PSP: Program Segment Prefix, holds specific information about the
- program. Various important vectors, pointer to the environment, and
- the commands you pass onto the program (like /h).
-
- Parent: This is the segment that 'owns' the program. In other words the
- program that called it.
-
- Env: A block will show here if that memory block is the environment to
- a program.
-
- Owner: The programs name, or it's owners name.
-
- Interrupts: A list of interrupts (in hexadecimal) that the program appears
- to have taken over, or at least point into the memory being
- used by the program.
