Welcome to version 1.1 of "Free Text", the real-time high-bandwidth free-text information system! "Free Text" is copyright (c) 1990 by Mark (^z) Zimmermann.
"Free Text" is a memory extender ΓÇö a collection of HyperCard stacks and other programs that I've written, designed to let you use extremely large collections of unstructured free-text information. "Free Text" is free software, and comes with NO WARRANTY whatsoever. This stack contains the documentation, distribution information, and index-building facilities. You can read it sequentially or you can jump to the section that you want using the buttons on the first card.
"Free Text" is dedicated to the scholars of the world, who have choosen to share knowledge rather than hoard it for their personal, short-term gain. "Free Text" was developed in part with support from Apple Computer, Inc. I thank in particular Steve Cisler, Apple Library Evangelist, for his vision and encouragement. I also thank all the people who helped me in this project, especially the members of my family ΓÇö Paulette, Merle, Gray, and Robin ΓÇö for their patience and understanding.
