Actually, I included a copy of the software with Sam's SoftStrip reader :)

Then of course there was the Causin SoftStrip reader. The Apple magazine
Nibble (among others) used to print strips about 5/8" wide that you could
cut out and run through the reader to load the published programs into
your computer instead of typing in listings.
Thanks to Kai's generosity I finally fulfilled my lifelong quest to obtain
a SoftStrip reader at the VCF. I am complete.
Naw... you are only complete when you find a copy of the software to
generate the Causin bar codes (yes, they did actually sell it!) and start
archiving your software on reams of paper!
...and when you find it, I want a copy too!
