*** THIS SOFTWARE IS SHAREWARE ***
****************************************************************************
Font Manager release two, ie: the !FontMGR2 application and all associated
files and utilities are shareware. At the incredibly low price of UK£2.00
Please read on for more details.
****************************************************************************
WHAT IS SHARWARE?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shareware essentially means that distribution is free of charge and can
be done via any method that leaves all the files intact. The individual
use of the fonts however isn't entirely free, although it's usually very
inexpensive.
Although is a general rule, you *MUST* read the author's own variation to
the norm. These can usually be found in the "!Help" file within the
application.
The author nearly always relies upon your honesty to send him/her the money
via the post. This system obviously has large holes in it's working due
to the unfortunate properties of human nature, but it has some obvious
advantages:
-> The lack of overheads means the software is less expensive for you as
opposed to the alternative, which is of course commercial software.
-> If you send in your money then obviously future products from this
author are likely to be shareware and hopefully as inexpensive, if not
more so.
-> Many authors like myself find that we spend an awful lot of time writing
software as well as we can, but there is usually no monetry incentive.
Shareware means that those authors can get something for their time,
encouraging them to continue writing for your operating system (in this
case Risc OS). After all we all need new equipment sometime in order
to keep writing software.
****************************************************************************
FONT MANAGER RELEASE TWO
Font Manager release two *IS* shareware, you are allowed to store it on a
storeage media for up to 7 days using it to decide if you wish to make
permanent use of it on your system. If you do decide that you want it,
please post to me the equivalent of UK£2 in one of the following
currencies.
-> UK£ 2.00
-> New Zealand dollars 5.00
-> Austrlian dollars 5.00
-> German marks 5.00
I strongly reccomend the use of a bank cheque, postal order or
cash. Please post to:
Andrew Lindesay
PO Box 28 548
Remuera
Auckland
NEW ZEALAND
By sending twice the required amount plus a 3.5" floppy disc in either
800k or 1.6M format you will get back the latest version.
This is *NOT* optional. If you want the software; please send the money.
This is very very very inexpensive. £2.00 is very little to ask for the
amount of time put into this package. The most inexpensive comercial
font manager is UK£10 and the better ones are around UK£25. This is the
best deal you are likely to find. If you resent having to pay for postage
then send it surface mail!
If you are a commercial operation wanting to package !FontMGR2 with one of
your own software systems (not alone), or even perahaps a shareware package
then I am very happy to do this at very much reduced prices if you are
selling in volume. Refer to the !Help file for details.
