Description:

Memphis is a replacement RAM-based filing system (RAM disc) that uses the
System Sprite area rather than the RAM disc area.  It provides:
* A dynamically resizeable RAMdisc
* Up to 30 character file names
* A new storage scheme that can use a slave filing system instead of the
  Sprite area.  This is useful if you need to have long file names or many
  files in a directory.  The files are also compressed using Acorn's Squash
  module built into the RISC OS 3 ROM.
