SUMMARY
=======

MemMaker scans memory to determine the current settings for the following four
environment variables set in the CONFIG.SYS file:

  Buffers=
  FCBS=
  Files=
  Lastdrive=

MemMaker searches memory instead of reading the CONFIG.SYS file because a
third-party memory manager may be loading these commands into upper memory. This
is necessary because MemMaker may not recognize your third-party memory
management loading scheme.
