A: QuickEditor 3.5 is Shareware. That means that you can try a limited version before deciding wether you want to buy it or not. If you like it and want to take advantage of all its advandced features, simply send a 20 US $ bill (banknote) to the address specified in QuickEditor User's Guide.
Q: Is it OK to send a check and not CASH as specified in the Manual ?
A: No sorry, checks aren't accepted. People used to send me checks from their home country that simply were uncashable in Switzerland. Or if they were, banks would eat up to 50 % of the proceed in fees. So checks aren't accepted anymore. What you should do is put a 20 US $ bill (or banknote for the British) in an enveloppe along with your name and address, and in return I'll send you the Registration Code.
If you're worried your money might get lost, send it by registered mail.
If you send a check, money order or cash in a currency other than US dollars, your order simply risks to be ignored and never answered to. (Checks won't be returned.)
Q: Will the address specified in the program still be valid when I decide (at long last) to pay the Shareware fee ?
A: Yes. My address in Geneva will stay the same for several years. So don't worry, if you send the 20 bucks, there will always be someone to process your order.
Q: Will the Registration Code be valid for future updates ?
A: Yes. The Registration Code is valid for the QuickEditor 3.x series. If a 4.x ever ships, upgrade information will be given at that time.
Q: Once I have registered my copy, may I share my Registration Code with friends that like the program too ?
A: No you can't. Registration Codes are personnal and for the restricted use of the Registered User. Spreading Registered Copies or Registration Codes is an act of piracy and is therefore strictly forbidden. Supporting Shareware by paying the Shareware Fees requested by the developers is the only way to keep the Shareware system alive, thus providing a cheap alternative to commercial applications. (Do you know how much Adobe Premiere™ costs ?).
Q: Do you have discount prices for site licenses (like Universities willing to run QuickEditor on several machines) ?
A: Yes, contact me for more information.
