Shareware

This Java puzzle is distributed as shareware. If you like it, please send US$5 to the address below. In return you will get a code which will give you access to all solutions in the pop-up menu.

There is another way to get a code: you just have to find one of the non-trivial solutions (see BackSlide Twist). If that happens, a little window will pop up telling you a code. Please make a note of that code for future reference. (Of course, we'd appreciate the bucks even if you get the code by yourself ;-)

The code must be entered in the file BackSlide.html. My apologies beforehand for this clumsy procedure, but I have not figured out a more elegant way (yet).


How to register

Send US$5 cash to: Please include your address, preferably also an email address, and if you found the code by yourself, already. In case you didn't, I will send you a code asap.


Entering the code

You cannot enter the code with the on-line version of BackSlide, sorry. It is only possible if you have the BackSlide package on your hard disk. If you found it on a CD-ROM, you must first copy the complete BackSlide folder to your hard disk before you can change anythng.
Also, you will need an editor like SimpleText (on a Mac) or Notepad (on Windows 95) to enter the code:

Known problems

I'm sorry to say the cross-platform compatibility Java promises, isn't quite there yet. I try to work around these problems as much as I can, so please keep checking our site for new versions.
