Recently, the program qc42 was posted on the net.  It can be
picked up from the /mirrors/msdos/dskutl directory on
wuarchive.wustl.edu.

I get the feeling it's a pretty awesome cache program.  But I
couldn't get it to work well with my software setup.

	- loading into high memory wouldn't work,
	- loading into conventional memory made otherwise well-behaved
	programs blow up: e.g., EmTeX previewer.

Any ideas?  If you have a 386Max-qc setup, could you mail me the
config.sys+autoexec.bat?

If not qc, what disk cache program do you recommend?  Right now,
I'm using smartdrv which (Microsoft, you know) isn't so hot.
