Medley IIGS v2.0 is a 'FREEWARE' from Milliken Publishing Company
This program is a very impressive DTP, presented as a IIGS desktop application
and has long been my favorite to use. Formerly a commercial IIGS program,
I've been very happy with its abilities for many years. I've wanted to share
it with all IIGS users, from the first time I used it. But, until now I
couldn't. So, I took the time and effort to find the publishers, contact
them and persuaded them to make the program available reclassified as freeware.
This is something I plan to do - as allowed - with as many Apple II and
IIGS abandoned and old commercial titles that are no longer available for
general sale to the Apple II users.
Medley IIGS v2.0 is now available exclusively from only this web site for
you to download. Archived as an 800k (3.5) ProDOS disk which contains only
the program, it's available (without) the second disk, which contains the
spell-checker/thesarus.
Unfortunately, the second disk can't be made available as a freeware or
even as a shareware from this web site by archive. Beleive me, I tried every
method possible with copyright holders of the Medley IIGS spell-checker/thesarus
- to see if I could get them to allow it to be reclassified as a freeware
or shareware also. But, with no success with this effort - you'll simply
have to use the program alone and improvise with the needs of any spell-checker/thesarus.
Update Notice: September 17, 1997
It does seem to be available now from this person via email request only
from the following email request link...
For those not interested in trying the above link for download - certainly,
as an alternative to not having the Medley IIGS spell-checker/thesarus disk
to use with the program, you can always export and save your file created
by Medley IIGS v2.0, as a text file. Then you can import it to any other
Apple II or IIGS program that accepts a text file and has a spell-checker
and/or thesarus - process the imported text file via that program, then
save it again as a text file and import it back into the Medley IIGS program
- for any additional efforts with DTP enhancements - as you desire.
If you want to download the Medley IIGS v2.0 program disk only, click
