DeutschFacts for Windows, currently under development, will be the next addition to Red Lion Software's "Know Your Facts" series of educational software products. As with other products in the series, DeutschFacts for Windows is designed to be a "one-stop" source for information on Germany, past and present. Please visit this site often to be kept informed as to our progress!
ScotsFacts and DeutschFacts for Windows are but two of the offerings in our KNOW YOUR FACTS SERIES of software products. This series will also include EIREFACTS, a digest of information on Ireland, "the Emerald Isle", and BRITFACTS, which will fill you in on all facets of England, Shakespeare's "scepter'd isle", and TEMPLARFACTS, providing in-depth information on this Military Religious Order of knights! Many other products in this series are planned. Stay tuned!
Doug Hunter's Delphi UUE Decoder Program for Windows 95First, why you should download it. When I started cruising the net, exchanging e-mails with friends and searching UseNet groups, I went through many UUE encoders and decoders trying to find one I liked. Every one of them had problems. Some were DOS programs, and I prefer not to open yet another DOS session unless I have to.
Others, though Windows-based, had awkward interfaces, not implementing drag and drop or remembering what directory I put my files to decode in from one run to the next. Still other encoders/decoders had the really bad manners to hog all my CPU while they decoded causing serious degradation in background communications if they didn't drive my TCP/IP connection into permaent Fin AK state.
Now I reasoned that it couldn't be all that complicated to create a program that actually followed normal Windows development guidelines in the interface and actually cooperated with everything else I was running so I could keep going while it decoded in the background.
Now if you have any of these same gripes about your encoder/decoder(s) then grab a copy of my program and try it out. The Nag isn't all *that* obnoxious and the program is completely functional without registering so you can get a real trial run.
So, why should you register then?
Well, I am planning on writing a few more things, but I'm going to need the encouragement of one success under my belt before I go and spend the time creating something new.
(I have a day job after all, this is mostly for fun!)
There's also the fact that if you want to be notified about any improvements to the program, I send e-mail to all registered users who want this sort of notification.
