- InterActive supported software scheme 14th December 1995
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- About the scheme
- ----------------
- The supported Shareware scheme was started by Joe Connor in 1993 to
- encourage authors to produce and support English language versions of
- their software AND to encourage UK users to register 'foreign' software.
- Recently the scheme was re-launched as InterActive. With currently over
- 1000 registrations the scheme has established the proven benefits of local
- support, which include:
-
- - Key to remove features reserved for registered users available
- - Local telephone, post and Email support
- - Free update service
- - No hassle handling foreign currency
- - Labelled Master disk and registration letter
- - ST-Guide on-line hypertext help (some software)
- - Other software (dependent on disk space)
-
- Registration fees are set to cover the currency handling, stationary,
- media and postage costs incurred in mailing out master disks and providing
- support.
- Although primarily a UK support scheme everyone is welcome to register via
- InterActive as an alternative to registering directly with the author/s.
-
- The currently supported software is:
