Introduction
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
This program and its PASCAL (BP7) source code IS Copyright (c) 1993 by:
David Daniel Anderson - Reign Ware.
The utility package referenced herein (.ZIP) consists of at least 5 files:
1) The executable program (.EXE)
2) The pascal source code (.PAS)
3) The program documentation (.DOC)
4) The BBS description (FILE_ID.DIZ)
5) This legal statement (REIGNWAR.TXT)
6) other supporting files as needed
Each individual utility package is archived using the PKZIP (R) Authenticity
Verification feature. If they have NOT been modified, PKUNZIP will display
the contents and following message when you enter the command:
PKUNZIP -t filename.ZIP (substitute name of .ZIP file for "filename"):
Authentic files Verified! # IAU056

Contact me if you have reason to believe this utility package has been
subject to any malevolent tampering, or if you wish to receive a current,
complete, unmodified and "guaranteed" virus-free copy.
Although this utility package may be archived along with other software,
including my own, the following pertains solely to THIS portion of it.

Legal Status, Warranty

║ Since this program is licensed free of charge, the author, David ║
║ Daniel Anderson, provides absolutely no warranty of any kind, either ║
║ expressed or implied, including, but not limited to, the implied ║
║ warranties of fitness for a particular purpose. ║
║ ║
║ This program is provided "as is"; the entire risk as to the quality ║

Usage, Duplication and Modification Policy
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
This program is FREEware. You may use, copy AND change all files (except
this one) free of charge, but only when the following conditions are met:
* NEVER change copyright statements: the copyright remains in my hands.
I will not be as generous in providing FREE software in the future if
I find that anyone has violated this (or any) requirement!
* Neither the program nor the source, nor modified versions of either,
may be sold or hired. (See note on ENHANCED versions below.)
* If you make any (considerable) changes to the source code, *please*
let me know (send me a copy or a listing). I would like to see what
you have done, and may even wish to include those changes in a future
"official" version (giving appropriate credit to you, of course).
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Distribution Policy
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
You can distribute this utility package under the following conditions:
* You ask no contribution from the receiver of this utility package except
for a nominal copying charge not to exceed US $10 (ten US dollars).
(CD-ROM, tape, and similar large *shareware* collections are limited
to a "reasonable", which may exceed US $10.)
* ALL original files are distributed together. (See note on ENHANCED
versions below.)
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Enhanced Versions
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Enhanced versions of each separate utility package ARE re-distributable, in
the same manner as provided above, only if they remain FREE for the user.
In addition to the above restrictions, I require that
BOTH (1) the original executable
and (2) the new executable,
(3) the "enhanced" source code, with comments regarding changes made,
(4) the original and/ or modified program documentation, and
(5) this file (ReignWar.TXT)
are included if ANY part is to be re-distributed.
(That comes to a minimum of five files.)
NOTE: Bug fixes (?!), ports to other platforms and/or languages, and
need-specific adaptations are not considered "enhanced", and, therefore,
do not require the inclusion of the original executable, but are otherwise
subject to the same restrictions as enhanced versions.
Other than according to the above provisions, the SALE of this program
or its parts for PROFIT, either alone or together with other software or
hardware, requires a licensing agreement possibly providing for royalty
payments. Please write for terms. (This program [the *entire* package]
may be bundled, without my knowledge, with other FREE software.)
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Other Comments
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
ANYONE may modify and/ or re-compile the source code for this program,
in any manner, FOR PERSONAL USE, with or without my foreknowledge.
Portions of my code may be used freely, provided the code used does not
amount to more than 50% of my original program or account for more than
50% of the total work in which it is ultimately used. In other words, I
am willing to share up to half of what I wrote, provided you do not use
it as more than half of your final program.
Although use of this program is FREE, donations are welcome to offset the
costs of Borland Pascal v7.0 and the distribution of this product. Half
of all revenues and ALL profits will be sent to Compassion International,
an organization which arranges long-term sponsorships in order to provide
for the mental, physical and spiritual needs of impoverished children
worldwide. [Other non-profit organizations may be substituted at your
request.] Please write me for more information if you have any questions.
ANYONE donating US $10 or more will receive, upon request, a floppy disk
(state size & density), with the most recent versions of all non-trivial
programs I have developed. (I write about two such programs each month,
although many are "niche" programs.)
*** NOTE: Users who do not reside in Canada or the USA may elect to mail
me a disk with a non-American (but still English language) program, and
I will return the disk with my programs. In this way, we both benefit
by receiving different software for a low cost. ***
ANYONE who finds a bug is encouraged to notify me. I will try to fix it.
I will also try to respond to requests for alterations or enhancements,
including customization. However, since I have little programming experience,
don't expect too much.
I am willing to take on new programming projects. My skills are increasing
daily, but I am still a novice. I welcome challenges, but I am realistic
about my abilities. Therefore, I will take suggestions, but I ask that you
realize my limitations.
If I choose to write a program for you, I can almost guarantee we can arrange
some form of acceptable compensation for my efforts. I may ask nothing!
Current versions of most of my distributable programs can be found on:
Channel 1 (R) (Cambridge, MA): The Kandy Shack (Garden Grove, CA)

I can be contacted in many ILink and RIME (Relaynet) conferences,
particularly the SHAREWARE conferences. Use "DAVID DANIEL ANDERSON".
On RIME, you can route mail to me at SITE #15 (->15 or ->CHANNEL1).
IF YOU CONTACT ME, tell me HOW, WHEN, and WHERE you obtained this program.
Users of this program consent implicitly to the ALL terms in this document.
