WRKDBF was originally offered as "freeware" but was later converted to "Shareware."

"Shareware" is the term used on the WRKDBF website to describe it. Bill Reger is/was the developer, I don't know more than that. The term may be wrongly used, of course, by current practices.

Then it isn't truly shareware, either. QuestView will spot you a

commercial product.
