KwikDraw - An Object Oriented Drawing Program
Freeware Version 1.10b
Copyright 1991, 1992 Paul Schimpf
This drawing program, unlike a paint program, is object oriented. This
means that after drawing objects (such as rectangles, ellipses, lines,
text, curves, or polygons), you have the ability to select and modify them
as independent entities. In a paint program an object, once it is drawn,
loses it's identity as an independent entity. Any editing capability in a
paint program must thus treat all the objects as mere patterns of bits on
the drawing surface.
KwikDraw has extensive on-line help that describes its use.
This is a Freeware version of KwikDraw. IT IS FREE. This Freeware
version will limit the number of objects that you may create, although
you are allowed to load more extensive drawings so that you can view,
transfer, and print the example drawings. The number of objects you are
limited to is displayed when you run the program. If the limited number
of objects is sufficient for your purposes, then you are free to use and
distribute this version, on the condition that none of the files included
in the distribution is modified in any way. In return I ask that you
inform me of any bugs that you find. You may also purchase an unrestricted
version of KwikDraw by writing, calling, or sending a request via
electronic mail (see below). The current price is $39.95 plus $3.00 S&H and
$3.00 for C.O.D. (prices subject to change without notice). REGISTERED
USERS WILL BE UPGRADED WITH BUG FIXES FREE OF CHARGE. Please note that
the unrestricted version of KwikDraw is NOT Freeware, and may NOT be
distributed to others - it uses the executable filename "kwikdraw.exe",
whereas the Freeware version uses the filename "kdraw_fw.exe".
