Show free Ram on a tiny title bar example.

[Bill Cravener]

Here is a simple Masm32 example that sits at the center-top of your screen which displays your available free RAM. This little tool is always on top so it can be seen at all times. Shows you how to round a region, how to create a dragable windowless title bar and how to retrieve and display your systems available free RAM using a timer. I've tested it on both Win 7 and XP.

Hi Dave, I had a somewhat boring Sunday so I had me some alcohol then started playing around with coding and that little FreeMem utility is what happened. I really don't remember doing it but today I checked it over and it looks OK so I decided to post it for others to play with. :bg

Thanks guys, it's not a bad effort considering I was in a drunken state. :bg

Hi,

   Works with Windows 2000.  Nice one.  Windows 98 did
not like it.

Thanks,

Hi Bill,

Nice tool. FYI there is a great little function in the SHLWAPI library that will do the bytes to KB/MB/GB/TB conversion for you.

StrFormatByteSize64

Takes the headache out of doing all the conversions. (note that though the docs don't say it it does do TB conversions)

Thanks Edgar, that's yet another of the many I have yet to discover. :bg
