Limited Distribution License:
-----------------------------
As the exclusive copyright holder for CRYSTAL BALL, Rosemary West dba
R.K. West Consulting authorizes distribution only in accordance with the
following restrictions.
ASP Approved Vendors in good standing are hereby given permission to
distribute CRYSTAL BALL package. Non-ASP member vendors must request
and receive permission prior to distributing this package.
Vendor/Distributor Information Page 1 of 5 - CRYSTAL BALL - Vendor.DOC -
The CRYSTAL BALL package is defined as containing all the material listed
in the PACKING.LST text file. If any files listed in the PACKING.LST text
file, or the PACKING.LST file itself, are missing, then the package is not
complete and distribution is forbidden. Please contact us to obtain a
complete package suitable for distribution.
The CRYSTAL BALL package - including all related program files and
documentation files - CANNOT be modified in any way and must be distributed
as a complete package, without exception. The PACKING.LST text file
contains a list of all files that are part of the CRYSTAL BALL package.
Small additions to the package, such as the introductory or installation
batch files used by many shareware disk vendors, are acceptable.
No price or other compensation may be charged for the CRYSTAL BALL
package. A distribution fee may be charged for the cost of the diskette,
shipping and handling, as long as the total (per disk) does not exceed
US$8.00 in the U.S. and Canada, or US$12.00 internationally.
Disk Sets & CD-ROMs:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The CRYSTAL BALL package CANNOT be sold as part of some other inclusive
package. Nor can it be included in any commercial software packaging
offer, without a written agreement from R.K. West Consulting.
ASP Approved Vendors who wish to distribute the CRYSTAL BALL package
as part of a collection (such as PsL's MegaDisk set, or a CD-ROM
package) may do so provided that all the other restrictions are met.
Vendors (non-ASP Vendor Members) who wish to distribute the
CRYSTAL BALL package as part of a collection (such as PsL's MegaDisk
set, or a CD-ROM package) must obtain permission from R.K. West
Consulting prior to beginning such a distribution.
If you wish to add any of our programs to a CD-ROM or other collection,
please check the release date of the version you have. If the version
is over six (6) months old then please contact us to ensure that you
have the most current version. This version was released in April,
1991.
Disk-of-the-Month (or Subscription) Distribution:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you would like to distribute the CRYSTAL BALL package as a Disk-of-
the-Month, or as part of a subscription or monthly service, then the
following restrictions apply:
ASP Associate (Disk Vendor) Members in good standing are hereby given
permission to distribute the CRYSTAL BALL package under the Disk-of-
the-Month style of distribution.
Vendor/Distributor Information Page 2 of 5 - CRYSTAL BALL - Vendor.DOC -
Others (non-ASP Members) must contact us in advance to ensure that you
have the most current version of the software.
You cannot use a Disk-of-the-Month distribution to use up your inventory
of old (out of date) disks. Only current versions may be shipped as
Disk-of-the-Month disks.
The PRINTED User's Guide may not be reproduced in whole or in part, using
any means, without the written permission of R.K. West Consulting. In other
words, the disk-based documentation may not be distributed in PRINTED
(hardcopy) form.
The CRYSTAL BALL package cannot be "rented" or "leased" to others.
You may not list any of our products in advertisements, catalogs, or other
literature which describes our products as "FREE SOFTWARE". Shareware is
"Try-Before-You-Buy" software, it is not free.
R.K. West Consulting prohibits the distribution of outdated versions of the
CRYSTAL BALL package, without written permission from R.K. West
Consulting. If the version you have is over six (6) months old, please
contact us to ensure that you have the most current version. This version
was released in April, 1991.

Vendor/Distributor Information Page 4 of 5Vendor Update Program:
----------------------
Most non-ASP vendors have standard procedures for acquiring new files.
They get them from other vendors, BBSs, etc. Most authors cannot afford to
mail disks to hundreds (perhaps thousands) of vendors. However, some
vendors prefer to obtain programs directly from the authors. If you would
like to obtain programs directly from us, automatically, then please help
us to cover the cost.
If you are NOT an ASP Approved Vendor (in good standing), but you would
still like to receive automatic updates directly from us, then please take
advantage of our Vendor Update Program. Under this program you can receive
updates for an entire year for only $10 per two programs (this helps to
offset our costs).
To receive updates, simply send us a letter with your name, company name,
mailing address, the name of the person we should contact (such as your
disk librarian), the program (or programs) for which you would like to
receive updates, and a check or money order for $10 for two programs
(Countries outside of North America please add an additional $10 per
two programs). Payment in U.S. funds drawn on a U.S. bank only please.
The Vendor Update Program is available for the following products (as of
April, 1991):
MAILLIST (Mailing list management system)
BY THE NUMBERS (Numerology)
WORKBASE (dBase-like dot prompt utility)
BOOK OF CHANGES (I Ching)
PERSONAL TAROT (Tarot Cards)
MAYAN CALENDAR (Calendar & astrology of the ancient Mayan culture)
CREATIVITY PACKAGE (counts as 2 programs - 3 disk set includes
2 programs and one full book for enhancing personal creativity)
GEOMANCY (Astrologically-oriented fortune-telling)
POETRY GENERATOR (turns your computer into a poet)
CRYSTAL BALL (tongue-in-cheek computerized psychic)
FORTUNE TELLER (6 ways to tell fortunes, plus ESP test)
CURSES! (humorous and creative insult generator)
RECAP (corrects capitalization in database files)
SMALL PROGRAM GROUP - Includes LOVEDOS and HARD AT WORK, two
humorous utilities; and CITIZEN, a printer control program --
this counts as one program
All vendors participating in our Vendor Update Program will automatically
receive any NEW programs which we may release while their Vendor Update
Program is in effect.
NOTE: ASP Associate Members automatically receive free updates and do not
need to apply for the Vendor Update Program. This is yet another
advantage to being an ASP Associate Member.
The Vendor Update Program is only intended to help us cover our expenses in
those cases where a vendor desires to obtain the program directly from us.
If you have other standard ways to obtain current versions of programs, you
may prefer not to use our Vendor Update Program.
