GASP! The most insidious bug in TurboDos just turned up :-(. It causes ST Hack to bomb when changing levels. 2 bombs show immediately which then turn into 4 bombs and then complete lockup of the system. Only a reset clears up the problem. Removing TurboDos from the AUTO folder and replacing it with ACACHE which I have been running for some time, seems to give as much of a 'speed up' as TurboDos and doesn't "crash" ST Hack ;-). Also doesn't eat up much memory either. So, be warned, TurboDos may not work with some software. I am going to stick with ACACHE.
