In 2002, Normand McGuire wrote a snooker scoreboard in HTML/VBScript.
This software is a very nice, small package which works on any Windows-based computer and, when projected onto an overhead screen, lets everyone in the room know the score.
It is optimised for 1024x768 resolution, and is really easy to use.
Normand has graciously agreed to allow anyone who wants it to use it. All he asks in return is that you e-mail him and let him known the name, dates, venue and the city where the software is being used and also how you like it: email Normand McGuire
The software has no audit trail, so you will still require someone to do that with a piece of paper,
