Thank you for your interest in the RamDisk+ program. This program has
been written to automate as much as possible the start up of the
Macintosh when an internal RAM disk is desired. All controls of the
program are remembered, so that once set, the program will run quickly
with no user interaction required.

Here is a list of the principal features of RamDisk+:

 * Automatically creates a RAM disk volume and copies over files and
   folders.
 * Optionally switches control to the RAM disk and ejects the startup
   floppy.
 * Optionally runs an additional program without returning to the
   Finder.
 * Optionally installs a "Crash Saver" to continue from BOMBs.
 * Works with HFS or MFS file systems on Macintosh Plus or 512K.

If you have already had access to the program, you will have probably
discovered its capabilities, but if not, here is a reminder of the
bare essentials necessary to use RamDisk+:

 * The "Configuration Dialog" is obtained by holding down the Option
   key during launch. (Be sure to read the help pages at least once.)
 * The "Exit Dialog" is obtained by holding down the Command (Clover)
   key during exit. (If you wish to automatically run another
   program, you may find it necessary to specify a "full path name"
   for that file. Use the form "Volume:folder:...folder:application".
   Caution: specify an application only, not a document.
 * Control of which files are copied over is determined by the
   position of RamDisk+ within your folder structures. Assuming an
   800K floppy source, only the files and folders within the same
   folder as RamDisk+ are copied. If the source volume is a 400K
   floppy, (i.e. a flat file system) then all files are copied over.

The program has been written to work best within the Hierarchical File
System of double sided disks and a Macintosh Plus computer. It will
also work with single sided floppies and 512K Macs, although the
folder structures are not properly maintained as the files are copied
onto the RAM disk.
