SCOTTSDALE, AZ - August 3, 1999 - Symmetry Software introduces its new
Version Master Mac CGI, a freeware program available to all webmasters. The
Version Master CGI allows webmasters to display, in real time, a listing of
the latest Macintosh software updates on their web site. Along with
updates, webmasters can also choose to display updated version numbers and
company URLs. The CGI connects to Version Master's enormous Mac database
(50,000+ titles in 50 countries). This database is continuously updated,
providing the most comprehensive listing of updated Mac software anywhere.
The version information can be displayed in the style of the webmaster's
choosing, including tables, ordered, and unordered lists. URLs to the
software sites and the date of updates can be included or excluded.
The Version Master CGI is available for all platforms (Mac, Win 95/98/NT,
Unix, Linux, or Mac OS X). The Mac Version requires a Mac OS System 7, Open
Transport v1.1 or Mac TCP v2.0.6, AppleScript and Thread Manager. With
System 8, these applications are already present. Version Master CGI works
with WebSTAR (2.x or 3.x), Quid Quo Pro 2, IIS, Apache, OmniHTTPd
Professional, Website Professional, and Alibaba. To connect with the
Version Master database, one must have a full TCP/IP connection to the
Internet.
Working in conjunction with the CGI is the Version Master Mac application,
(VMM). VMM provides a listing of the user's software along with updated
version numbers. For a minimal subscription fee, members receive
personalized and relevant email notifications when a program on their
computer has been updated. Also, product descriptions and download URLs are
provided.
