Re: [XaraXtreme-dev] Have implemented a Linux port of GetMemoryStatus ("Function to find available RAM")

Hi Israel,

I suggest you do something like this:

#if defined(__WXMSW__)

	/* Existing Win32 code */

#elif defined(__WXMAC__)

	PORTNOTETRACE("other", "GetMemoryStatus is not implemented for WXMAC");

#else

	/* Your Linux implementation*/

#endif
