597.0. "Rainbow TOS Utilities" by LDP::WEAVER (Laboratory Data Products/Science) Sun Sep 17 1989 16:32

    Rainbow TOS has some utility programs which Atari has released to
    the user community.
    
    LDP::SYS$UNSUPPORTED:RAINBOW.ARC contains those utilities.  They
    won't be there forever, so if someone can copy them to another
    area I would appreciate it.
    
    Of note are CACHE.TTP rename to CACHE90.PRT in your AUTO folder and
    it caches file information and file data in separate caches.  Note
    that it works for both floppies and hard disks and makes an
    impressive increase in performance.
    
    There is also a program to fix two problems with TOS 1.4, RTS/CTS
    handling and some obscure file selection problem.
    
    Mouse Accelerator \\ also contains a screen saver function.
    
    A newer hard disk parker (SHIP) for Atari Hard disks that can be used
    as a desk accessory.
    
    There are one or two more, files describe each utility.
    
    						Enjoy,
