Dear Apple II user,
As a service to the Apple II community, I offer a disk with all of the 
software you need to get started in the world of Apple II "modeming".

This double sided 5.25" disk contains:
Sneeze 2.1:    Freeware by Karl Bunker - program launcher, txt & awp
               viewer/printer, graphics viewer, utility set.

Shrinkit 3.4:  Freeware by Andy Nicholas - Apple II standard
               archiving/dearchiving program, utility set.

BinSCII 1.0.3: Freeware by David Whitney - Binary/Text conversion utility
               (Apple II standard).

UU 1.1:        Freeware by Andy Tefft - Binary/Text conversion utility (Unix
               standard).

Comm.System 2.5:    Freeware by Jim Ferr - Simply, easy to use communications
                    program that supports Xmodem transfer and ASCII capture.

Unshrink 2.1:  Freeware by Andy Nicholas - Shrinkit for II+'s, unenhanced
               and/or 64k IIe's.

In archived format (Shrinkit archive, of course) Zlink - Shareware by David
Whitney - is included. Zlink is a more advanced communications program that
offers X & Ymodem transfer capability and VT-100 emulation. 

To take full advantage of these programs, IIe users should ensure their
machines are enhanced, with at least 128k of RAM. IIc users should determine
their ROM version by typing the following and pressing return at the 
Applesoft basic (]) prompt:

] Print Peek(64447)   <press return>

If a value other than 255 is returned, then your IIc has the necessary ROM
version to take full advantage of your machines telecommunication abilities.

All original documentation files are included.
