Thanks for following upπ with Stephen [Leitner] as I don't have direct access to him onπ Compuserve, but will experiment with trying to send mail to him via theπ InterNet route.ππ GG> Wayne I got an answer from Stephen Leitner. Here's a copy of hisπ GG> message to me. I think it answers at least one of your questions.ππ Yes it does!ππ GG> You can get Microlink to execute a script from the command line asπ GG> follows:π GG> WIN MLINK -sHOST.MSLππ GG> Just replace HOST.MSL with the script you need.ππ Well actually in my case, I would already be in Windows (as my eventπ scheduler is a Windows app.), so I would not need to use the "WIN" partπ of the command line entry above.ππ I tried the rest of it (using the appropriate directory reference forπ Microlink) and she worked like a charm. This now means that I can set upπ my scheduler to automatically get the mail for me at a certain time ofπ the day. I hope that he realizes tht this is an omission from his userπ manual, and will update that document in the next release. As much as Iπ like the software, I have always found that the manual was somewhatπ lacking. After all, it has not been updated since Microlink was calledπ "Comit for Windows" way back when.ππ GG> This was in answer to another question I sent him. If you have anπ GG> interest in this test version, let me know. I'm going to try to getπ GG> it.ππ Thanks for the offer, but I can't really see a need for this at theπ moment.ππ Any word from him as to when a new version might be released? Thanksπ again for the information.ππ Wayne Moses,π Saint John, NB, CANADA.ππ...

Consequently, I suspect this constitutes a copyrightπinfringement, and suggest that registrations of F-Prot be sentπdirectly to Frisk Software International, Postholf 7180, IS-127,πReykjavik, Iceland.ππHope this information is helpful!

Are there books on this. π LT> What is the sucess rate on getting your fees when you write shareware,π LT> crippleware? ππ First of all, all original ideas are inherently copyrighted andπthis refers to software programs as well. The problem is that you haveπto be able to PROVE that you came up with the idea before anyone else,πin this case have written the software, and that it wasn't copied fromπanyone else.ππ The simplest way to copyright a software program is, once you haveπcreated it, to place the source code and compiled code on a disk(s),πwrite protect the disk(s), place the disk(s) in an envelope, send it byπregistered mail to yourself (this way you have to sign your name andπdate for it and the post office has a record), then place it unopenedπin a safe place, preferably a safety deposit box.ππ Of course you can always go to a lawyer.......ππ As to cripple ware, you just comment out certain sections of theπsource code. When your program is compiled, those functions will noπlonger work since all comments are thrown out by compilers.ππ As for the rest, you will have to ask a Shareware Author.πππ David Hartππ...
