Subj: REPLY TO MSG #586 (EXTRAM)

Dear Craig,
  I do keep a mailing list, but the longer it gets, the harder it is to follow
up with it.  The extRAM software keeps developing, and I always think that just
around the corner I'll want to send everyone an "upgrade".  The one thing that
writers have wanted is the ability to use extRAM as a RAM disk, to move
material freely a file at a time back and forth from extRAM to RAM.  It is now
easy to move material from extRAM to RAM, but to move stuff from RAM to extRAM
you still have to do two bank swaps.  Too much hassle.  That makes extRAM
better for archival storage.  But I'm  working on it.  When that is done, I'll
definitely want to send out the upgrade notices.  -- Tracy
