It's shareware, surely that's good enough.

Scott Robson can write
It's shareware, surely that's good enough
but is incapable of reading
alt.comp.freeware.games
Is this a rare form of genius, kinda like the Rainman Syndrome.
Or should we leave the savant out of idiot savant?
Just some personal musings...

Nope. This group is for freeware. There are other groups for
shareware.
Have a great day!

You mean to say that you don't see a big difference between freeware and
shareware? I do.
Freeware doesn't cost you a thing. You can use it as long as you want. You
can pass it around to your friends, put it on your website, etc. As long
as you don't claim that you wrote a program that you didn't, everyone
should be happy.
Shareware, OTOH, costs money. If you don't pay, some crucial part of the
software won't function, or the program will stop running after a certain
amount of time. Often, you can't legally give it to anyone else because
the shareware author requires some sort of registration to download. Even
things like WinZip will nag you every time you run the program until you
fork over the cash.
Big differences. I write freeware as a hobby. I don't charge for my work.
Some of my friends have suggested that I should go a shareware path. But I
don't, because 1) I'm also a user of software, as well as an author, and
being nagged, getting crippled or time-limited software really ticks me
off; 2) I already have a job, and although I'm by no means wealthy, I
manage to feed my family; 3) I can remember some of the gems I've found
that were freeware, and want to give back to the internet community at
large by offering my programming skills as well.
Have a great day!
Ernest
