2014-11-20 00:37:06 +00:00
< p > CiderPress provides the features that Apple II enthusiasts need to manage
their disk and file archives. Open them, view their contents, and copy
files between them. There are other programs that provide access to disk and
file archives, but none have as many features or support as many formats as
CiderPress.< / p >
2015-02-05 22:34:27 +00:00
< p > CiderPress, introduced in March 2003, was developed by
< a href = "http://www.fadden.com/" > Andy McFadden< / a > and sold as shareware through
< a href = "http://www.faddensoft.com/" > faddenSoft, LLC< / a > . The program was
made free, and the source code released under the BSD license, in March 2007.
A " refresh" to modernize the code was done in January 2015.< / p >
