I've updated the PL pages - didn't update the Zone Alarm version yet
(due to the reported problems some users have had).

Latest version is 5.04.25
Latest TEST version is 6.08.25

The PW description shows only version 5.04.25 - should I add v 6.08.25 too.

re: SuperFormat

I posted this in the Keepers of the Month thread - repeating it here:
I also notice that the Pricelessware page has listed v.2.7 of

Superformat, but I've found v.2.8. I was wary because I thought that it
might have been like TurboNavigator 1.47, I.e. a later version gone
horribly wrong, but I've tried it and it seems ok. Perhaps someone else
knows more....? Anyway, it can be found here -

of DOS and Win3.1 stuff for the nostalgia buffs or, dare I say, those
who still actually use them....?!


Didn't know there was a v 2.8 - it seems that very few people do. . .

Download link (perhaps the only one?):

Would some of the experts check this out please and recommend on whether
or not we should change the Pricelessware version.

According to *The Great Guru*, Luu Tran himself, Xnews is in a perpetual
beta cycle.

If you *do* add 6.08.25 (and I recommend it; I've been using it for awhile
now and it works fine, and supports a couple of functions that I needed,
which the old one didn't), You'll have to mention that it isn't the
complete package, it's just the EXE, so they'll need to install 5.04.25
first...

Hello Arne and Dan,

I will add 6.08.25 (with a note) - thanks for the feedback and the
additional info.
