MSDOS's MemMaker figures the size of each program that it loads high and
includes this size on the applicale LH line for each program or driver in
the autoexec.bat file. IIRC, it loads them in memory biggest to smallest.
Also some program use LESS memory after loading and you will be able to see
this in the size switch that MemMaker assigns for each item.
