I'm posting version 1.21 to net.sources.mac.  The help information is
very extensive.  One item: Don't click on the initial alert item
with the version number in it. That attemps to go to Macsbug. Wait
for the dialog box with the size, set, cancel, and help, before clicking on
anything.

For those who haven't used ramstart before:

When run it comes up with a version window, followed by a dialog box.
The dialog box will have a default size in it (probably 320K which is what I
use) which is based on either: what you set it to last, or the
amount of space used by the folder it was launched from, or the amount
of ram left available minus some minimum. 

Click on any of the enabled items (size, help, cancel) to modify the
normal procedure (cancel of course cancels).  I recommend you select
help first thing as the author included a LOT of information.
