Thank you for looking at DV Task Manager. As I anticipate a very limited
user base for this program, I hope all who do use it will report bugs
discovered and send me comments even if they don't wish to register.
This unregistered copy allows the scheduling of 3 events; the registered
version allows 20 and possibly more if enough registered users demand it.
I chose to limit this program in this way on the idea that most operators
of simple non-commercial bulletin boards will find 3 events quite
sufficient for scheduling system maintenance beyond the capabilities of
their BBS software, and users who want more events are probably running
a more 'serious' system and shouldn't find the registration cost of $25
prohibitive.
To my knowledge, DV Task Manager is the first program of its kind to
be made available in the DESQview multi-tasking world. Creative use of it
could allow a business user to obtain mainframe-style, on demand processing
power from his desktop 386.
******************** Registration Deal! ********************
Register DV Task Manager for $25 and receive a registered copy
of DV Tree for only $10 more ($35 total). The current version of DV Tree
is version 1.7 (distributed as DVTREE17.ZIP).
If you use this program, please register it. Contrary to popular
misconceptions, shareware development is not cheap; if I'd known the
total hours I'd be spending on DV Tree and DV Task Manager before I
started, these programs probably wouldn't exist.
