Hey Alex - thanks for the updates. Suggestion: would you consider
putting the software version somewhere either in a.) the title or b.)
in the rating/requirements detail summary? It may make it easier to
determine if someone has something newer or older than whats been
uploaded to the site. Thanks in advance.
Good idea. I'll see if I can wrangle a specific 'version' field for the
software based archives. Naming the titles of software with version
numbers I did start doing at one point, however it becomes a pain for
the database renaming the titles.
I never used to think there were so many different versions of the
software available for the IIGS...not like there are these days, or
even the last 15 years since I moved onto the Mac.
Newer versions of software I know are out there and would be benefit
the archive are: The Manager by Seven Hills Software (anything newer
than version 1.0), Transprog III (anything higher than v1.1) and
Kangaroo (anything higher than v1.3).
