So far, everything that I have written for the Apple II runs under 8-bit
ProDOS (well, everything worth distributing; I have done some work with
DOS 3.3 as well).  In fact, I have yet to do anything with the advanced
features of the 65c02, and so my software should work just fine for those
multitudes of you that use Apple II plusses exclusively....

As for the availability of my software, I was not aware that there were
any difficulties.  I use Lynx to download things from Web sites, and it
works for ftp sites as well; but I neglected to consider those among us
without access to it.  If you have been to my Web site, you may have
guessed that I would not dream of requiring anything other than a real
Apple II to download and use my software, and if this is the case, I do
apologise.

So, if you cannot download from my site directly to your Apple, please
e-mail me, and I will reply with a BINSCIIed copy of whichever of my
programs you request.  I want to know how widespread this problem is!
This way, I can (hopefully) find out how much of a difficulty this is,
and if it is widespread enough, I will indeed see about getting copies
uploaded to the major archives.
