- Allow to put in a plug for SRDISK, a truly wonderful ram disk program
- written by Marko Kohtala. Available at all your better archive sites.
-
- The current version provides, among other things, a neat solution to the
- recurring problem of DISKCOPYing between diskettes of different formats.
-
- Highly recommended.
-
- (Oh, did I mention that it support RAM disks of up 128M?)
