/*
 * This file defines mgaugestart(), mgaugeend(), mgaugeon() and mgaugeoff()
 * which produce and control a simple memory allocation gauge in a terminal
 * window.  The gauge is displayed in textual form using the standard I/O
 * library rather than using a graphics library.  Since it is updated in
 * real-time, it makes no sense to send the output of the gauge to a file.
 * Only one gauge can be in use at any one time.
 *
 * The first argument to mgaugestart() is the filename of the file to write
 * the gauge to.  As mentioned before, this should be a terminal file that
 * can be displayed in real-time, such as /dev/pts* on UNIX systems or CON:#?
 * on AmigaOS.  If it is a null pointer then the standard error file stream
 * will be used.
 *
 * The second argument to mgaugestart() specifies the character that will be
 * used to represent allocated memory.  If this is given as whitespace, `|'
 * or `+' then `#' will be used instead.  The third argument specifies the
 * number of bytes that the gauge represents.  If the total allocated memory
 * exceeds this then `+' will be appended to the gauge.  The final argument
 * specifies the frequency of memory allocation events at which the gauge
 * should be updated.  If it is specified as zero then all events will cause
 * the gauge to be updated.
