[comp.sys.ibm.pc] EMS Ramdisk and Disk Cache

jwbirdsa@phoenix.Princeton.EDU (James Webster Birdsall) (10/17/89)

   I'm about to get (it's in the mail) a 2meg EMS card for my PC/XT.
Does anybody know if the following software exists at all:

   Resizable ramdisk: one that can be resized from the command line as
necessary or turned off entirely if I need the EMS. I'm going to be
writing some EMS-hogs and would like to have a ramdisk when I need it
and eliminate it when I don't.

   Resizeable disk cache: this isn't quite so important. If I have to
live with a fixed-size disk cache, I will (anybody have any
recommendations/sources?), but I figured that as long as I'm on the
subject I might as well ask. Is there any such creature as a disk cache
which can be resized from the command line or turned off entirely?

   What about a resizeable print spooler?

   Thanks in advance...
