I'd like to take this chance to remind people that Swatdisk has
been well recommended by many people via both email and snailmail.
It's also Shareware, so I'll expect your check in the mail real
soon now, Evan. :)
For a quick summary, Swatdisk is a GS/OS driver that allows you to
create ramdisks of virtually any size (some integral size from 16K to
3072K) at any time under GS/OS, and dump them from memory any time you
want. No more finding 800K scratch disks for the crazy idiots who
create disk archives (A certain one claiming to have various degrees
initialed 'Piled Higher and Deeper' and name sorted alphabeticaly into
'dmort' comes to mind, but I digress :) when you want to decompress
them.
No ProDOS 8 support, but you can get the source for the low, low
price of $15, so you can program that yourself. Above all, Swatdisk
was programmed totally by myself, Nathan Mates, (special thanks for
user interface suggestions by William R Hall) and is a 100% Bullshit
Free product. It works as I claim it does, and has been exhaustively
beta tested for at least 8 months.
Support those who are supporting you, and especially those who
don't have to resort to lying about their programs or their
"qualifications" with regards to their "products."
