Caveat emptor. -sg] here is my contribution to the PD: (yet) another cache which I wrote between the discussions about turbodos and some days ago. I think it offers some nice possibilities to be manipulated which cannot be found in other caches known to me. E.g. it is possible to turn on/off writethrough and usage of the cache for different drives seperately. Also the cache can easily be configured via a configuration file. Manipulating the cache is done by either using a desk accessory or by invoking the cache again with the appropriate arguments (if one is working from some shell). The software is public domain, in the documentation I only asked for a small amount of money to be sent to me on a voluntary basis. The rest of the file is arc'ed and uue'd and includes documentation. The cache works fine with me (well ofcourse , I wrote it myself).
