We have just completed a port of TextMaker to the FreeBSD operating system and are making this available as a free download to you. TextMaker for FreeBSD is identical feature-wise to revision 392 of TextMaker for Linux and supports all x86-based FreeBSD systems starting with FreeBSD 4.8. (We simply haven't tested under older FreeBSD builds). Get the FreeBSD installation archive here: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX (Please keep this URL confidential.) NOTE: Please do not pass along this installation file or pointers to it. You receive it only because you are a paying customer. We'll have free trial versions later. To activate TextMaker, please use the serial number you already received for TextMaker for Linux. -------------------------------------------------------------- Should we support FreeBSD at all? Speak up now! -------------------------------------------------------------- We have not made a final decision whether to support FreeBSD at all and whether to port more applications like PlanMaker to FreeBSD. Speak up now! If you are a FreeBSD user and want to see our software for FreeBSD, help us make a business case for it by answering the following questions: 1. Should we support FreeBSD at all? 2. Does TextMaker for FreeBSD work without flaws on your FreeBSD system? (if not, please file bug reports to beta@softmaker.de) 3. Which printed magazines do you read that cover FreeBSD? 4. Which BSD-specific web sites do you visit? 5. How can we reach FreeBSD users? How can we ensure that more FreeBSD users learn about our software? 6. On which Unix-like operating systems would you like to see TextMaker, PlanMaker and our future office suite software? Send your replies to info@softmaker.de (or simply answer this e-mail and insert your comments). We want to hear your opinion! You can participate in deciding about the future directions of our software. Best regards, SoftMaker Software GmbH ------------------------------------------------------- -- Kind regards, Jonathan
