You do realize, surely, that POV is not a Win95 app.  There is a DOS
version of the source code, and the parts you're talking about 
changing are generic in any event.  But why do you need the amount of 
free memory?  The rest of POV just assumes that it can allocate whatever
it needs until it fails to do so.
