About The Shareware Solutions II Library Shareware Solutions II is a general interest Apple II newsletter that has a strong focus on Apple II freeware, shareware and public domain software. In each issue of the newsletter, there appear two related articles about these categories of software..."Shareware Solutions IIe/IIc/IIgs" and "Shareware Solutions IIGS." All of the programs and disks that are written about in those Shareware Solutions articles are available via the mail. This file describes all software to date that is available from the Shareware Solutions II Library. (Please note that this stack will be updated several times a year.) In addition, Shareware Solutions has a license with Apple Computer Inc to distribute disks of Apple's copyrighted software, including the ProDOS System Software for Apple IIe and IIc computers, GS/OS, the Operating System for the IIGS, and HyperCard for the IIGS. That license only applies to the software; no written documentation is provided with Apple System Software. Apple System Software is also available from the Shareware Solutions II Library, with one very important caveat - Shareware Solutions II is only authorized to distribute Apple System Software to subscribers of the Shareware Solutions II newsletter! Public Domain software is provided with no strings attached. It is not copyrighted, and there are no restrictions placed upon it. You can freely modify the software, incorporate it into another program, or do whatever you want with it. You'll know if a program is public domain if there is not a copyright notice when you first run it. Freeware Software is similar to public domain software, but with one major difference; freeware is copyrighted by the author of the software. In essence, the author grants Shareware Solutions II a license to distribute the freeware, and gives you a license to freely use it. Shareware software is copyrighted, and when you first run a shareware program, you'll see a notice that says that you're free to try out the software for a limited period of time, and at the end of that trial period, you're asked to send a shareware fee directly to the author of the software. In most cases, that fee is just $5 or $10. Upon payment of that fee, some shareware authors may send you a note of thanks, some may send you printed documentation, some may send you a disk with other software on it, and some may send you nothing. Shareware Software is "honor system software." You are not obligated to pay shareware fees if you don't like the software, or if it doesn't work quite right on your system. But, if you do like a shareware program and continue to use it after the limited trial period, please send the shareware fee directly to the author of the software. The fee charged by Shareware Solutions II for these disks is just a shipping and handling fee, to cover the costs incurred to acquire the software and to cover the cost of disks, mailers, and postage. You are still obligated to pay shareware fees. Shareware Solutions II believes in providing just as much software as possible on each disk, and in providing instructions and in making each disk easy to use. All software has been screened to make sure it works and that it is free of any type of computer virus. Due to the many models of Apple II computers, and due to the many different configurations of RAM memory, Shareware Solutions II cannot guarantee that all software will work on all computers. Where there are special requirements, they are generally noted. Some programs require a joystick, some require large amounts of RAM memory, and some may not work with Apple II "clones." All disks acquired from Shareware Solutions II are guaranteed to be free of any virus. Additionally, all disks are guaranteed for 30 days so that if disks are damaged in the mail, they will be replaced free of charge. Simply return any damaged disk to Shareware Solutions II, and it will be replaced, no questions asked. Upon receipt of a disk from the Shareware Solutions II Library, please confirm that it was not damaged in the mail, and please copy the disk and store the original in a safe place. Generally, software for the Apple IIe/IIc are available on either 3.5" or 5.25" disks, except when specifically noted, and it is therefore important for you to specify what disk size you prefer.
