For all of you who were wondering what I was talking about on my note
about NULLFILL... here's a copy (soon to follow).  Just stick it in the
AUTO folder before most of other stuff except BOOTSLCT.PRG (more about
that later).  NULLFILL is not compatible with everything so note which
programs act up and disable it for them.  To disable it hold down a
shift key or toggle caps lock to caps WHILE THE PROGRAM IS LOADING.
NULLFILL WILL SPEED UP 1MEG STs considerably (breathtakingly) especially
when using a hard drive.  The speedup only works with the old roms and
the more free memory there is the greater the speedup.

Note that NULLFILL was not written by me (just polished up a little).
It was posted (source code) to the net recently.  Please don't flame
me... I burn easily.

Also included (at no extra cost) is a program called BOOTSLCT.PRG.  I
wrote this so feel free to flame me.  BOOTSLCT is one of those little
utilities which allow you to shut off all .ACC and .PRG (in the AUTO
folder) files or turn them on during bootup (very useful for a Hard
drive).  It is very small, fast and hassle free unlike some other (OK,
they're more powerful but they are >70K long) programs.  Put it in the
AUTO folder (first) and boot up with it.  To boot up with all .ACCs and
AUTO .PRGs press F1.  To boot up without anything press F2.  You can
wait until the prompt or you can put this keystroke in the buffer (type
it before the prompt appears) so absolutely no waiting is required (I
hate waiting!).

Note:  There is a 90day guarantee on BOOTSLCT.  If for any reason you
are not satisfied with this program within the first 90days of ownership
let me know and you will receive the full purchase price back... no
questions asked.
                                           ...John
