To find the current maximum size of the datalog, get a MemMap.

There is a pointer to the start of the datalog area and also a pointer to
the top of the memory area.  Subtract these two values for the current
maximum size of the datalog.

I see your point about UploadDatalog, as the tower falls asleep and the PC
won't hear the RCX shouting.  But SetDatalog seems to work in a program
just fine, to set the size of the datalog buffer.

BTW, what is the maximum size for the datalog, and how do you tell if
SetDatalog failed to allocate the space you asked for?  Perhaps there
aren't answers to either of these questions.  I've been using a 2000 entry
log, seems to work okay.

Cheers,
