TidBITS#279/29-May-95
=====================

The momentous news this week is that Frontier, previously an
   expensive scripting program that's in many ways better than
   AppleScript, is now free. Tonya passes on advice for those
   writing ReadMe files, Adam muses briefly about a good use
   for some of the PowerTalk technology, and we look briefly at
   the BBEdit 3.1.1 update. Finally, we have MailBITS about RAM
   Doubler, PC Setup 1.0.6, and the Communications Decency Act.

MailBITS/29-May-95
------------------
  This issue is a touch late partly due to the Memorial Day holiday
  in the U.S., and partly due to us helping Chad and Galen Magendanz
  ShrinkWrap their apartment and mount the resulting disk image in
  their new house. Apologies for any confusion our tardiness might
  have caused. [ACE]


**Updated Updater** -- Last week Connectix released a maintenance
  fix for the RAM Doubler 1.5.2 update reported in TidBITS-278_.
  Although the fix is called Updater 1.5.2a, it's important to note
  the fix is for the Updater application rather than RAM Doubler
  itself. The current version of RAM Doubler remains at 1.5.2, and
  if you've updated to 1.5.2 successfully, you don't need this
