THE INSTALLATION PROGRAM USED BY "SHAREWARE TRACKER" WAS WRITTEN BY
LINCOLN BEACH SOFTWARE AND IS ENTITLED FIRST IMPRESSION.
LINCOLN BEACH SOFTWARE RESERVES ALL COPYRIGHT PROTECTION WORLDWIDE.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION THEY MAY BE REACHED AT P.O. BOX 1554, BALLWIN,
MO 63022 OR 314-227-2431. HAROLD HOLMES MAY ALSO BE REACHED ON
COMPUSERVE AT 70700,630.
All of the users of "Shareware Tracker" are experienced. However,
other programs I've written are sometimes used by beginners.
Using "First Impression" to install the programs for them has
eliminated many support calls. It's simple, straight-forward
design walks the beginner through the install with no problems.
And for the author, it's easy to learn. I had a customized
installation procedure for one of my programs in about a
half an hour after loading FI.
I use and highly recommend "First Impression".

DR. FILE FINDER'S GUIDE TO SHAREWARE
This book, written by 'Shareware Magazine' editor Michael Callahan
and Nick Anis, put shareware on the books-in-print map in 1990. It is the
most intensive overview of the state of the industry.
This 'Guide' defines shareware and places it in the larger scheme
of software, with interviews with several founders of the shareware
concept.
The bulk of the book focuses on shareware products, category by
category, including personal favorites of the author.
It also has an appendix of several thousand BBSs.
If this book isn't in your library, your collection of shareware
books isn't complete.
Ask for "Dr. File Finder's Guide to Shareware" at your favorite
bookstore.
