KILOBYTE ver 0.3C - ($5)
KILOBYTEs are (mostly) small (mostly) text files intended to fill

can be used to convince your customers that they are really

Kilobyters are meant to fill up the unused space on a disk, much
like cartoons and public service advertising do in a paper
newspaper. It is free space, and the editor fills it by the
kilobyte.
Anything goes. All works must be signed. They may be
copyrighted, but must be freely copyable. Kilobyters can be
cartoons like MISS_BAT.TXT, utilities like BROWSE.COM,
interpreted BASIC programs like SIY2LINR.BAS, short stories like
ARA*.TXT, advertising like KILOBYTE.ERS, and whatever else floats
by. The idea is that even if the main part of the disk isn't of
the slightest interest to the reader, s\he may find a kilobyter
or two which will make her pass the disk on rather than reformat
it. For independent bitflippers, this is free publicity.
