A few well choosen applications, apps, can make life as a web author much easier. The apps we have used to create this workshop are located in ZIP files in the samples subdirectory on the workshop server. So the first app you will need is an un-ZIP-er. The best app is called WINZIP. The Win 95 version of Norton Navigator (formerly Norton Desktop) is a very nice product and will also ZIP and un-ZIP files.
Many of the apps, such as WIZIP, are shareware. Feel free to copy them and try them out but pay the author if you keep them and use them often.
We have un-ZIP-ed some applications and provided links so that they can be used during the workshop. Other applications, such as QuickTime for Windows are already installed on your machines. Look in the source directories and copy the self extracting EXE files onto a floppy disk if you want to take these applications with you.
