use on the World Wide Web. A teacher can author exercises which
students can then access through the Web, using a standard Web browser.
The quizzes are created using HTML and Javascript, but the user does not
need any knowledge of these languages to create them. Quizzes may also be
saved in the program's native "JBC" format, then reloaded later for editing.
JBC will is a Windows 95 program.
2. Freeware Distribution
JBC is distributed as freeware. You may install it on any machine and use
it at no charge. If you use the program to author quizzes, please do not
delete the link to the program's homepage at the bottom of the quiz pages,
so that others may be able to find the program and download it if they wish.
Copyright laws apply to both commercial and freeware software, and the
