Application Systems Heidelberg ( ASH ) is a German distributor of software and games mainly for the Apple Macintosh . Volker Ritzhaupt is the managing director .
The company was founded in 1985, and during the Atari ST era , ASH started out with products such as Signum! , the STAD graphics program , the Phoenix database system and the MagiC operating system .
