| Is there a set of instructions somehwhere? My OS4.1.x Workbench titlebar shows total memory, but I'd like it to show free memory and, if possible, free graphics card memory. _________________

Hey, 6... Guess I should be more specific. I know where to change it, but I'm looking for what to type in the text string to get free RAM and free graphics card memory. _________________

Screen title format in workbench prefs.
Press the box that says Insert and select from the gui that pops up there.

Ah... ok I got it now. I thought I had to type some stuff before hitting the insert button.
Now I see how it works.
Thanks, Toaks and 6. _________________

a better name or a better layout is whats needed IMO , it used to be a bit different before and i am not sure when this was changed.
I will write an enhancement request.

You can also add text to define the variable, before or after the variable. _________________

And here's mine:
%e BootVolume |=| %e ActiveMemGuard |=| %e ActiveApache |=| %e ActiveSashimi |=| C-compiler: %e ActiveC_Compiler |=| Video: %mgq%% remaining
On a µ one will see video memory rapidly turning to low, one-digit figures, indicating slow responses to windowmovements and other such activities...
