I do not set any cookies, I do not store any data and I do not host advertisements. (I can take no responsibility if the web hoster does any of this.)

About the Programs

The computer programs are all written in Java so will run on any computer that has a Java Runtime Environment. This can be downloaded for Mac OS, Windows or various Unix systems from Oracle.
Of course I can give no guarantee that the programs are correct and can take no responsibility for any damage caused.
All the programs come with a complete user manual (except the Screen Ruler, which does not need one). These are available on the pages of the programs and are embedded in the downloaded programs for extraction to the user's disc.

Maintenance and Updates

I made these programs for my own use and am making them available to anyone who finds them useful. I am not selling them and not committing to maintain or enhance them.
You may send error messages, enhancement requests or calls for help via the Contact page, but I make no promises as to when I might reply.
I might make the source code public at some time in the future.

About the Website

The website is intended to transmit the intended information with as little distraction as possible.
It is not intended to be "cool".
Having found that site editing tools do not produce very good HTML and CSS code, it is edited directly with a text editor.
Note: some links go to pages on other sites - no responsibility is taken for their content.
