- InterActive supported software scheme 26th March 1996
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- About the scheme
- ----------------
- The supported Shareware scheme was started by Joe Connor in 1993 to
- encourage authors to produce and support English language versions of
- their software AND to encourage UK users to register 'foreign' software.
- Recently the scheme was re-launched as InterActive. With currently over
- 1200 registrations the scheme has established the proven benefits of local
- support, which include:
-
- - Key to remove features reserved for registered users available
- - Local telephone, post and Email support
- - Free update service
- - No hassle handling foreign currency
- - Labelled Master disk and registration letter
- - ST-Guide on-line hypertext help (some software)
- - Other software (dependent on disk space)
-
- Registration fees are set to cover the currency handling, stationary,
- media and postage costs incurred in mailing out master disks and providing
- support.
- Although primarily a UK support scheme everyone is welcome to register via
- InterActive as an alternative to registering directly with the author/s.
-
- The currently supported software is:

- Update service
- --------------
- New releases are featured in the Public Arena pages of Atari World.
- Subscription details available on request.
-
- By post
- -------
- To receive an update send a self addressed envelope including return
- postage (or IRC) and an unlabelled double sided floppy disk. Please state
- clearly:
-
- 1) The software you'd like updated
- 2) The version you're currently using
-
- How long will I have to wait?
- -----------------------------
- Due to the number of people taking advantage of the service I can't always
- reply as quickly as I'd like to. Often I'm waiting for a new version or
- simply too busy earning a living so please be patient!
-
- If you have Internet access
- ---------------------------
- You can obtain the latest English language releases via anonymous ftp,
- www, gopher, telnet or batch ftp from:
-
- micros.hensa.ac.uk
- URL: http://micros.hensa.ac.uk/
- Path on hensa: micros/atari/tos/...
-
- The Atari area on hensa produces a newsletter containing details of the
- latest files. If you would like to be added to the mailing list, or have
- any other queries concerning hensa you can email Denesh Bhabuta at:
-
- danny@micros.hensa.ac.uk
-
- If you have a modem but no ftp access
- -------------------------------------
- You can obtain the latest English language releases from 42BBS:
-
- SysOp: Colin Fisher-McAllum
- Telephone: UK+(0)1256 895106
- System: 24 hour/28.8K modem/Falcon/8N1
-
- Other Bulletin boards and ftp sites are allowed to carry the on-line
- archives but because minor updates to the English language version are
- sometimes made without changing the version number hensa and 42BBS are the
- places to go to ensure you have the very latest versions!
