Welcome to the x86 archive of the BeSpecific 6 CD by Adamation Inc.!
We have assembled applications and utilities in the following
categories:
The links below will show you the README files for the
applications and files on the BeSpecific CD 6 and let you download the archives directly.
This archive is for applications that are compatible with BeOS R4 running on CPUs from
Intel's x86 processor family. We'll add an archive of binaries for the PPC processor
family in the future.
If you would like your software mirrored here, or would like
us to add a link to your page or replace an archive here with a link to your own download
site, contact support@adamation.com and we'll
be glad to do so.
Note that the links below will download the files via http.
If you'd like to ftp the files, copy the URL and paste it into the URL text field. Then
replace the "http" in the URL with "ftp" and you'll be good to go.
About BeSpecific
CD 6 will give you an overview of the disc.
GNU Public
License under which some of BeSpecific's software is licensed.
Shareware
Although you can freely copy the contents of the BeSpecific
CD (subject to possible restrictions), not all of the software is "free." Some
of it is "shareware," meaning that if you use it for more than some specific
length of time (indicating that you find it useful in some way), you must pay its author.
Shareware payments are often low, usually less than $50, but that doesn't mean the
software is low quality or that the authors don't deserve your money. Just as the GNU
concept encourages freedom and technical advancement for everyone's benefit, paying for
shareware you use is vital to encourage individual programmers to write yet more software.
Check each app's Info panel or README file for where to send your check.
