Hi Paul,

 HG> Good afternoon Paul,

PQ> Thank you.  It's another gorgeous day in the sunshine state.  Very
PQ> much like a cool summer's day even though we're just near the end of
PQ> winter.

Here it's the first completely overcast day in a month. Of course we've
had clouds passing over but not like to today. The fall has entered :o(

 HG> Yes, it seems to be quite versatile but I don't know if it existed
 HG> when I needed a point program for my office machine with WFWG 3.11
 HG> system.

PQ> I can't recall when I started using SemPoint, though the archive in
PQ> my filebase is dated October 2002 which might be a clue as to when I
PQ> downloaded it.  I've been using it & other sysop readers, and NNTP,
PQ> since then.  As you can see herewith, it's still doing sterling
PQ> service.  It's a 16-bit Windows application and would have run
PQ> nicely in WFWG, I'm sure.

The version I have in my file repository is v2.25a dated in 1997.
The license.txt contains:

"Unregistered use of SemPoint after the 30-day evaluation period is in
violation of Italian and international copyright laws."

Also the price to register it is mentioned as USD 33. Both the short
evaluation period and the price would have made me loose interest in
it, even if it would have been available when I needed a point program
for WFWG.

The FrontDoor APX was known to me when I needed a point pgm but reading
the file_id.diz file tells me that SemPoint is a very versatile pgm.

Have a nice spring,

Holger
