FAXCilitate

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

FAXCilitate was a Macintosh computer program that was bundled with Supra, Inc. and Diamond Multimedia brand modems from 1995 - 200x.

FAXCilitate was based originally on a source code license purchased from STF Technologies (STF). STF was later purchased by Smith Micro.

FAXCilitate as written by a team of engineers: Jeffrey G. Backes, Scott Francis, Doug Troxel, Jason Collins, Mitch Fry, Dave, Mike are just a few of the engineers that worked on FAXCilitate.

Apart from the ability to send and receive faxes using class 1 fax modems, FAXCilitate is best know for adding a fax menu to the system menu bar. Every application that could print could send a fax.

FAXCilitate/STF was original written in PASCAL and was ported to C for the PPC processor.

FAXCilitate was also bundled as part of the Supra VoiceMail application sold by Supra and Diamond Multimedia.
