I put topline in the GO32 environment variable, but I can't find a description of all those funny things that go32 shows on the top screen line.

When go32 finds topline in its environment variable, the top screen line will show the following info, from left to right:

R or P (Real or Protected mode)
full path of application program
address of last syscall/page fault
page space used (red)
used physical memory
remaining physical memory
paging reason:
`t'=text `d'=data `b'=bss `m'=malloc `s'=stack `<'=in `>'=out

In DPMI mode, the last 4 items are not shown, as these chores are performed by the DPMI server, not by go32.
