I am looking for a RAMDISK for an ST which satisfies the following
requirements:

1. Grows and shrinks automatically.  Growable to at least 360K and hopefully
   higher (to 700K would be great).

2. Works on an upgraded (to 1 MEG) ST exactly as well as on a regular ST.

3. Allows 4XFORTH applications (ex: STTALK) to be run with no problems.

4. Works on an ST with TOS in ROM (with and without upgrade).

5. Will work on 4MEG ST (when the 1MEG DRAMs are readily available).

6. Allows the ST to function exactly as it would without the RAMDISK
   (examples: does not crash computer when changing resolution
              does not affect fonts...etc...)

7. Is installed as a desk accessory.

Information leading to the acquisition of such a thing, if it exists, would
be greatly appreciated.
