Hi

> what does the "F" in "MEMF_CHIP" stand for ?

As usual at the Amiga, the "F" stands for "flag".
For several bitflags there are two defines, one with the number of the bit and a second with the bitvalue, e.g. in "dos.h" are the definitions for the fileattributes for example

#define FIBB_READ 3

This defines the bit number 3 as the one that has to be tested do determine is a file is readable. The according flag is:

#define FIBF_READ (1<

Unfortionally there are no MEMB_#? defines but nevertheless this follows this name-convention.
