Andy,
	I've just encountered a new (new to me, anyway) problem with
Shrinkit 2.1.  Now that I've installed a GS Ramkeeper I can no longer get
Shrinkit 2.1 to shrink files.  It doesn't matter whether I run it from the 
ROM disk or from the 3.5 disk.  It lets me specify the files to shrink and
the destination file then it briefly spins the source disk and crashes into 
the monitor.  The register readouts are:

00/BEEC:00 00   BRK 00
A=3400 X=0001 Y=00FF S=01FA D=0000 P=32 B=00 K=00 M=0C Q=88 L=1 M=1 X=1 e=1

	I tried version 2.01 and it works fine.  My configuration includes
an Applied Eng GS RAMPlus (1 meg) + the Apple GS Memory card (512k) plugged 
into the Ramkeeper.  The ROM disk is set to 511k (512k total for ROM).  No
RAM disk setup.  I have three physical drives attached - the standard GS
3.5 drive, a Unidisk 3.5, and an old 5.25 disk II.  The drives are identified
as S5,D1 = GS 3.5, S5,D2 = ROMDisk, S2,D1 = Unidisk 3.5, and S6,D1 = 5.25.
I'm running under 8 bit PRODOS not GS/OS.  The other features of Shrinkit 
(such as Type, Delete, Copy, Catalog, and Extract/Unshrink all seem to work
fine.

Anyone else out there having similar problems?

Since I had to cancel my subscription to this net due to mail volume limits
you'll have to send any replies to me direct.

Thanks,
