 set up cache ready for use.  The following script commands are available:

 	The defaults are 7% (run), 5% (cull) and 1% (stop) respectively.

+Starting the Cache
 ==================

 configures the cache and tells it to begin caching.  At that point the cache
 binds to fscache and the cache becomes live.
