<h2>What's CiderPress?</h2>
|
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>
|

|
|
|
<p>CiderPress, introduced in March 2003, was developed by
|
2018-05-28 20:42:52 +00:00
|
|
|
<a href="https://www.fadden.com/">Andy McFadden</a> and sold as shareware through
|
|
|
|
|
<a href="https://www.faddensoft.com/">faddenSoft, LLC</a>. The program was
|
2015-02-05 22:34:27 +00:00
|
|
|
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>
