Anyone may request a copy of a user-supported program by sending a blank, formatted disk to the author of the program. A copy of the program, with documentation on the disk, will be sent by return mail. The program will carry a notice suggesting a contribution to the program's author. Making a contribution is completely voluntary on the part of each user. Free distribution of software and voluntary payment for its use eliminates costs for advertising and copy protection schemes.
Users obtain quality software at reduced cost.
They can try it out before buying, and do so at their own pace and in the comfort of their own home or office. The best programs will survive, based purely on their quality and usefulness. Please join the experiment. If you believe in these ideals, your contribution is solicited to help make them work. Many of you have written requesting an invoice so that you could initiate payment through your company accounting system.
