- Sharing Uedit
-
- You can give people a copy of the Shareware Uedit. When you give away
- copies, you must observe the following restrictions:
-
- *** You must distribute ALL of Uedit's Shareware files together.
- These are in the Shareware directory of the Uedit disk.
-
- *** You must NOT MODIFY any of those files except for putting your serial
- number into UES.
-
- *** You must NOT distribute copies of UE or the printed or disk Manual or
- Uedit's command language documentation or spell-checking materials. You
- may distribute ONLY the Shareware directory and must NOT distribute any
- file that is in the Private directories.
-
- *** You MUST use Uedit COPYRIGHT notices on Uedit files.
-
- *** You MUST use Uedit TRADEMARK notices on "Uedit".
-
- You may include your own files along with Uedit, put files on several
- diskettes, distribute files via modem, or compress files, as long as their
- contents remain unchanged.
-
- You may print, copy, and distribute the Help! and other text files in the
- Shareware directory.
-
- Please encourage others to try Uedit. In distributing it and encouraging new
- registrations, you will be supporting good programming for Amiga Shareware.
-
- And your feedback is important too. Most of the improvements in Uedit since
- the beginning have been in response to feedback from its users.
-
-
- Revision Numbering
-
- When a new version comes out, the old version number is incremented by 0.1.
- Thus, if the current version is V2.4a, the next true upgrade will be V2.5a.
-
- When bugs are fixed in a version, the release letter is incremented. Thus if
- 2.4a has bugs, the fixed release is 2.4b.
-
- If you own a version such as V2.4a and bugs are found in it and a V2.4b is
- released, you may get V2.4b by sending in $3 or your V2.4a diskette, a self
- addressed mailer, and postage.

- About Shareware
-
- Shareware is a generous, trusting concept which treats you like an honest
- person, rather than presuming that you are not, as, for instance, copy
- protection does.
-
- Successful shareware programs have got to be superior, because you get to try
- them out thoroughly at home or in the office before buying them. Many
- commercial programs would not survive this acid test.
-
- You are allowed to try out a Shareware program for as long as you require, in
- order to decide whether you are going to use it or not.
-
- When "trying" becomes "using", you are obliged to buy the program.
-
- Only then does the Shareware author get paid for his work and expenses for
- creating and supporting the program you are using.
-
- Uedit relies on:
- * Your honesty.
- * Your cooperation in safeguarding Uedit by not distributing its
- private files.
- * Your help in finding new customers.
-
- Thank you for your support!
