This request command returns the free memory and size of a specified Z88 file device, which can be :RAM.x or :EPR.x where x represents slot 0 - 3.

If device name ":RAM.-" is specified, total free space and total size of RAM is returned (if the Z88 has multiple RAM cards installed).

Available device names are returned by Receive Device Names command.

If the specified device cannot be found in the Z88 filing system (RAM or File Cards), only ESC "Z" is returned.
