    Or modify 'free', which is what I was going to do. How would I find the number
    of actual pages-in-use from those variables? I've tried adding and subtracting
    several and can't seem to get the 26mb number from the first output of
    /proc/meminfo that I showed in my last email:

    Buffers: 16648 kB
    Cached: 35276 kB
    Active: 2036 kB
    Inact_dirty: 37264 kB
    Inact_clean: 12624 kB
    Inact_target: 4 kB

    => -/+ buffers/cache: 26628 99888

    Thanks,
