FileTrax is shareware, but I'm not asking much. The shareware situation is as follows:
$15- You’ll receive all new versions of FileTrax via e-mail. And you’ll also receive the password to allow you to edit FileTrax.
$20- You’ll receive the latest version on disk via U.S. Mail and all other new versions in the future via e-mail(if you have an address). You’ll also receive the password to allow you to edit FileTrax.
$25- This is for people who live outside of the United States. Same as the $20 description, but the extra five dollars is for shipping costs.

If you register FileTrax and you can not receive new versions via email for some reason, they will always be available on large internet sites as well as AOL. You can also visit the Semaphore Software Web Site at:
New versions should appear at Infomac sites and the web site only a day or two after I release them.
Disclaimer: I reserve all rights to FileTrax. You may make any modifications you want so long as you don’t distribute the changed version. You may freely distribute FileTrax, just make sure it’s in it’s original form and has the accompanying files with it. Thank you.
