DESCRIPTION

     I don't use floppy disks very often. But when I used them I was
     bored by the slow speed.
     To get rid of this, I wrote CacheIt. CacheIt is a small floppy-
     caching commodity that hardly doesn't take up any memory when no
     disks are in drive and gives a great speed up for your floppies.

     Another requirement for CacheIt was, that it would free its memory
     when the system needs it. This is done by a low memory handler.
     It works fantastically: I worked a lot with disks and my system
     was down at 10 KB Chip and 10 KB FastMem, when I tried to start
     a terminal program.
     No problem: CacheIt released as much track buffers as necessary
     and the terminal program started!

     CacheIt works with DD and HD floppy drives.
