                                 MEMORY

Purpose:    Sets system memory allocation strategy.

Syntax:     MEMORY=<[BESTFIT|FIRSTFIT|LASTFIT] [NOUMB|UMB]>

By default: MEMORY=FIRSTFIT NOUMB

Note:
     This command is executed before the pass processing some commands like
INSTALL. The memory allocation strategy can be defined trough system calls.

FIRSTFIT - use the first acceptable memory block
BESTFIT  - choose the block closest in size to that inquired
LASTFIT  - use the last of the acceptable blocks
UMB      - use UMB (only if DOS = UMB)
NOUMB    - search for free memory only in the lower memory

Hence, the commands

    MEMORY=FIRSTFIT UMB
    INSTALL=filename

are equivalent to

    INSTALLHIGH=filename

although, in the first case it is impossible to perform the simple INSTALL
command in view of the global action of the MEMORY command.
