ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 1. Arieel Your Gateway To The Time ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Arieel Your Gateway To The Time
Since I was unable to find a smart and nicely designed desktop clock which
floats on top, but does not bother the user by hiding permanently the
information which it is covering, I thought that was a smart thing to start
with. And of course a calendar that shows the week and day of the year and be
able to show legal holidays. A alarm which remind you of imported daily events
with a stylish message box and a nice tune shouldn't be missed.
And of course every thing must be as configurable as possible and support a lot
of national setting and a hole bunch of languages. Configurable thru the system
setup where this could be done or thru the preference dialog or command line
parameters.
NOTE: Just press F1 to get help from any dialogs in Arieel.

The use of Arieel is subject to the following terms and conditions.
The copy of Arieel that you have is distributed as shareware. You may freely
copy and distribute the file Arieel.zip but only AS LONG AS THIS FILE IS NOT
ALTERED IN ANY WAY. You may NOT distribute individual components of Arieel.zip,
either as-is or in modified form, without written permission from Andreas
Haack. In no case you may charge for distribute the file Arieel.zip. You may
put it on a Shareware CD and put it on your BBS System.
Since Arieel is distributed as shareware, you may use it for a 31-day trial
period, as long as you agree to the provisions of this license agreement. If
you continue to use Arieel beyond the 31-day trial period, you are obligated to
register it. Instructions for registering Arieel can be found in the
Application Help.
When you register Arieel, you will be given instructions for converting it to
the full, non-shareware version. You may not distribute the full version. You
may treat it just like a book, except that you may copy it onto a computer to
be used and you may make archival copies of it for the sole purpose of backing
up the software and protecting your investment from loss.
By saying "just like a book," I mean that the full version may be used by any
number of people, and may be freely moved from one computer location to
another, so long as there is NO POSSIBILITY of it being used at one location or
on one computer while it is being used at another. Just like a book cannot be
read by two different people in two different places at one time, neither can
the full version of Arieel be used by two different people in two different
places at the same time.

ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ 2. Why Arieel Reminds You To Register? ΓòÉΓòÉΓòÉ
Why Arieel Reminds You To Register?
The purpose of (unregisterd) shareware is that a potential customer may
evaluate a specific software, and find out if it fits her or his needs, and not
to be used as an productive purpose.
This is in contrast to a lot of commercial software that you just can buy and
have to take whatever it is like. Those commercial software is often buggy an a
customer wouldn't buy it a second time.
People tend to attract resources with all kind of tricks, so in the real world
people protect each other from doing so. Think of a music CD. You may listen to
it in the music store. Then you can buy it or not. You may not take it home and
яtest it under real conditionsя, then listen to it for two month then pay for
it. And you may not return it after you have opened it.
All this rules should ensure fairness.
So please don't be sheep and try to argue with completely different rules for
software and come with fantastic definition of shareware that no-one would
agree on.
I tired balance out the restrictions in the unregistered version of Arieel. And
I DON'T want to bother the user and make her or him remove Arieel, but want to
give the the registered user a little advantage.
HENCE YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!

The Time Zones
At a first glance time zones seem to be pretty strait forward. There a 24
physical time zones with 1 hour difference each. But in reality time zones are
a big mess. There are no international standards not on names abbreviations and
when it comes to DST there are just observations. A country may have several
time zones or several countries share one time zone or both. Time zones come in
quarter or half hours. There are time zones sharing the same time (offset) but
having different names and abbreviations, or are time zones that are on the
same physical time zone but having different time (offsets).

Simply click an icon witch shows the flag of the language wish. The icons are
created with the install procedure. The language specific abbreviation are
taken from the POSIX-LCL files, that were created and copyright by IBM and
delivered with the compiler. The IBM Licence allows me to deliver these with
files with Arieel. They must be located in the locale directory under the
Arieel base- directory and the LOCPATH variable must point on this directory.
That is done with during the installation.

Licence Agreement and Copyright
The use of Arieel is subject to the following terms and conditions.
Arieel is provided 'AS IS'.
The copy of Arieel that you have is distributed as shareware. You may freely
copy and distribute the file Arieel.zip but only AS LONG AS THIS FILE IS NOT
ALTERED IN ANY WAY. You may NOT distribute individual components of Arieel.zip,
either as-is or in modified form, without written permission from Andreas
Haack. In no case you may charge for distribute the file Arieel.zip. You may
put it on a Shareware CD and put it on your BBS System.
Since Arieel is distributed as shareware, you may use it for a 31-day trial
period, as long as you agree to the provisions of this license agreement. If
you continue to use Arieel beyond the 31-day trial period, you are obligated to
register it. Instructions for registering Arieel can be found in the
Application Help.
When you register Arieel, you will be given instructions for converting it to
the full, non-shareware version.
You may NOT distribute the full version. You may treat it just like a book,
except that you may copy it onto a computer to be used and you may make
archival copies of it for the sole purpose of backing up the software and
protecting your investment from loss.
By saying "just like a book," I mean that the full version may be used by any
number of people, and may be freely moved from one computer location to
another, so long as there is NO POSSIBILITY of it being used at one location or
on one computer while it is being used at another. Just like a book cannot be
read by two different people in two different places at one time, neither can
the full version of Arieel be used by two different people in two different
places at the same time.
