Awesome protip Bram!

This was the first solution that occurred to me:
function ramdisk
set size (math "$argv[1] * 2097152")
diskutil eject /Volumes/ramdisk >/dev/null 2>&1
set ramdiskpath (hdiutil attach -nomount ram://$size | egrep -o
'^\S+')
diskutil erasevolume HFS+ ramdisk $ramdiskpath
end
Kurtis' string trim looks even better!
A+
