How can I set Tasks > Next value in a !Run file?

[wmd]

As per title. I'm going to guess that it can be done using MemAlloc. If so, what is the correct syntax?

I'm not sure the question really makes sense. The "Next" value is the amount of RAM that will be allocated to the next task that's run WITHOUT it calling *WimpSlot, as well behaved tasks should.

But if you really do want to change the next slot, you can call *WimpSlot -next
eg.

Code: Select all

*WimpSlot -next 1024K

I am trying to get the Superior re-release of Zelanites to work. If I manually set Next in Tasks to 1088K the game loads fine. Using WinpSlot -next 1088K in the !Run file isn't working.

In an application's !Run file, the correct syntax is:

WimpSlot -min 1088K -max 1088K

You would only fiddle with the -Next parameter if you wanted to change things for an application that will be loaded after the current one.

WimpSlot -min 1088K -max 1088K

Thanks, that worked.
