Hello Dave,

"In the event of an allocation (by a call to RtlAllocateHeap asking
for 260 bytes of memory, for example) the FreeList[0].Flink and
FreeList[0].Blink pointers are updated to point to the next free block
that will be allocated"

Could you please explain why FreeList[0] gets updated?

Thanks,
Avri
Good question. I didn't write that chapter I don't think. A good way to see what chapters I wrote is "Does the chapter mention CANVAS or SPIKE a lot?" If it does, then I probably wrote it. :>
