   Very often the authors of shareware are doing it for fun, and they
   like to hear comments and suggestions, and like to be helpful.

If they're not in it for the money, why are they asking for money?
Shareware is NO different from commercial, proprietary software -- it
just uses a different marketing scheme.

I am leaving the employ of Clarkson as of June 30.  Hopefully this email
address will remain.  If it doesn't, use nelson@gnu.ai.mit.edu.
