Windows Programming with Shareware Tools
Accompanying CD-ROM
What's on the CD-ROM and What's not
The CD-ROM included with this book is the product of meticulous
research. While this CD-ROM is smaller than those which are merely raw
dumps of popular FTP or BBS sites, there are some important differences:
- Every archive is specially authorized for distribution on this
CD-ROM with a signed release from its original author.
- Each of the original authors has provided the very latest release
available at time of publication.
- Each of the authors has been contacted multiple times by email
or telephone and actively supports their product.
What you won't find on this CD-ROM is a lot of filler. There are no
mammoth archives of .BMP "wallpaper" with swimsuit models, no
unauthorized sound bites from Arnold Schwarzenegger movies, and
absolutely no Star Trek (TM) games. The CD-ROM contains only one thing:
serious Windows 3.x, Win32, and Windows 95 development tools.
Nothing is worse than investing time into evaluating a shareware product
only to find that the author has dropped off the face of the earth. I
have close contact with all the authors in this book. Many of them have
based improvements to their software on my comments. On a CD-ROM
produced by an FTP site or BBS, contact is never made with the author
after the initial upload confirmation. Thus, such CD-ROMs have a high
failure rate with regards to author support.
The following annotated file list also appears on the CD-ROM in a
file called FILES.BBS. The file is formatted for use with PCBoard BBS
and is easily convertible to other formats.
