Antal!!! Great you're still here!!!
Started working on Dome again? (it's a shame you stopped...)
Well I think it's easy to find out. Make sure you have a clear system with
no TSRs running etc.
Then take your total amount of memory sements. Substract 3 from it for the
Dos2 kernel+system area and another 2 pages for MemMan.
Then chech the amount of free segments MemMan returns. If it differs 1 or 2
from the amount you just calculated, then MemMan probably takes a page extra
or less, or you have made some mistake in the calculation... But if the
amount returned differs more than 2 pages then it highly likely doesn't
count the TPA in...
Ofcourse you just wanted an answer because you are lazy and don't want to do
all this hassle but what the heck...
