Texas CS Dept., Austin, Texas Lines: 10 Xref: mnetor comp.sys.att:141 comp.sys.ibm.pc:1133 There is a nifty ram-disk program available from simtel20.arpa which allows you to change the size of the ram-disk dynamically without rebooting. There are limits on the sizes allowed (I think the minimum size is 32K). Sure is nice to be able to say adjram +64 to increase the size of the ramdisk when you have to put a big file on it (and adjram -64 when you're done). I think the file is PD:ADJRAM.ARC. I don't know that it will work on the ATT 6300 though... --Pete
