Trying to spare a tree
Article Abstract:
Williston, VT-based Solutions Inc's $119.95 SuperGlue II is a utility program for the Apple Macintosh that enables users to transfer copies of files to another user even if the second user does not own a copy of the application in question. SuperGlue II works by fooling the computer into thinking a printer is asking for the file; it then makes a copy of the file that can be viewed by anyone. SuperGlue II will make copies of any file, including documents with graphics and multiple fonts. SuperGlue can also be used across a network, or via modems. The recipient need not have his own copy of SuperGlue II. SuperGlue II comes with a viewing accessory that is free to be copied, and can be given to anyone who would want to view the copied file. SuperGlue II requires a Mac Plus with at least 1Mbyte or RAM and System 6.0 or higher. Aptos, CA-based Aladdin Systems' $79.95 Shortcut file management utility for the Mac is also discussed.
