I have worked with applications in the past that need to be "smarter" than the
operating system.  In particular, under VAX/VMS one can obtain software (best
is EEC systems Turbodisk) than takes a portion of real memory and makes it
look like a disk.  users can then reference as a disk with directories, ala
vma0:[dir].

I am working on an hp 9000/350 with hp/ux, and am wondering if there exists
some public domain or commerical software available under unix to do the
same.
