Basicaly, I know if I gave my games to anybody to play them with me

online, the first thing on my mind would be that the other person would

not need to mess with the setup too much manualy and that I won't

compromise the security of his/her computer.



This software package has very tough security and an open design to

allow things (including the installation and setup) to be automated very

easily, for real and effectively. Plus, if you're making not games, but

programs, that accumulate information that has to be kept confidential,

the tough security (includes encryption) will be something very

appropriate. Also, you can send the infromation your program needs to

send in easily debuggable plain text without wasting bandwidth, because

the data will be automaticaly compressed (only when needed; this is how

I get 12 kbps on my puny dailup).



I might also mention the program package has a powerfull, but not

obligatory copyprotection system (to prevent unauthorized duplication),

which anyone can easily spread onto other programs added to the package

later.



There are also things in the package that can be put to good use in

distribution of the software to friends, such as structures that tell

your program into what directory it is installed, programs that repair

damaged/deleted plain-text databanks of your programs, find lost files,

etc. Then there is a cute universal setup utility that works with

plain-text databanks and only requires you to write a script for it to

fit the demands of your program.



There are also a few programs that help with the debugging (such as the

utility that combines log files and rearanges lines to show the true

series of events according to time stamps) and for example a program

that lets you browse plain text databanks. Of course with this you have

to make your programs use more and more of the package's

methods/standards.





I know the website looks like our interests are someplace else, but we

are fully willing to adapt to the needs of other programers, since it is

in our great interest that others join our effort in any way. That is,

the end goal of the software package is actualy to create a friendly

environment for usefull artificial intelligence to evolve, but I won't

bother you with that.



Still very practicaly, what you have is a free ride across the Internet

for your software.
