Since i STRONGLY believe in the net as an anarchy, i will approach
this in a democratic manner (:-). I was given a version of APL68000
(the APL programming language from Ken Iverson and IBM)
binaries and assorted workspaces with the )save function disabled. In
other words you can play with it all you want but you can't save
your work. The question is should i post it to comp.*.atari.st?

My personal opinion is that a demo only version of a program is a
thinly disguised advertisement for the product and violates the
non-commercial nature of the net, but i will bow to popular opinion.
please email your votes to me (imagen!turner)

thanks
