There are functions named _go32_dpmi_get_free_memory_information(),
_go32_dpmi_remaining_virtual_memory() and _go32_dpmi_remaining_physical_memory()
in the library which you might consider using.  In addition, if you are only
interested in free physical memory, you can put ``topline'' into your GO32
environment variable and watch the free memory change dynamically as the
program runs.

No.  The allocated memory gets automagically deallocated when your program
exits.
