:Shareware
Shareware is a marketing arrangement whereby
people write software that can be freely
copied and "shared" among interested parties.
People who choose to use the software
regularly may then register directly with
the author. Shareware authors offer various
benefits for registration, including
telephone support, program updates, printed
manuals, and newsletters.
Dart is a shareware program. A list of
vendors known to carry Dart appears in
<Dart.#A>.
The Association of Shareware Professionals
(ASP) is an organization serving shareware
authors, users, and libraries. ASP provides
guidelines for authors and libraries, and
support intervention should a user have
difficulty dealing with an author.
The documentation of all ASP members must
include the following "Ombudsman statement":
"(Member's Name) is a member of the
Association of Shareware Professionals
(ASP). ASP wants to make sure that the
shareware principle works for you. If you
are unable to resolve a shareware-related
problem with an ASP member by contacting
the member directly, ASP may be able to
help. The ASP Ombudsman can help you
resolve a dispute or problem with an ASP
member, but does not provide technical
support for members' products. Please write
to the ASP Ombudsman at 545 Grover Road,
Muskegon, MI 49442 or send a Compuserve
message via Compuserve Mail to ASP
Ombudsman 70007,3536"
UserWare is `not`, at this time, a member of
ASP, but we `do` consider ourselves ASP
compliant.

:About_the_Author
:UserWare
UserWare was founded in 1988 by its
proprietor, Ted Husted. Ted spends 8 to
12 hours a week on UserWare activities,
including order fulfillment, bookkeeping,
end-user support, research, development,
and, of course, debugging.
The rest of Ted's busy work-week is
spent as System Administrator for a
Rochester NY law firm specializing in
commercial collections.
Ted, who turns 34 this year, is also
blessed with a lovely wife, Barbara, and
an aggressive two year-old, Jacob.
Dart is UserWare's second shareware
program, of what may be a suite of (at
least) three, each designed to fill the
needs of a different brand of user.
Prior to 1992, UserWare sold over 300
copies of its Iris/Prism software, and
another 200 copies in 1992. By the end
of 1993, we hope to have a thousand
registered users.
