- | Welcome to the Shareware revolution. This remarkable method of |
- | software distribution was co-pioneered in 1982 by Jim Button and |
- | Andrew Fluegelman. It has become a major force in the software |
- | industry, helping to reduce software prices and eliminate copy |
- | protection schemes. |
- +-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
-
- HERE'S HOW SHAREWARE WORKS:
-
- You are encouraged to copy the diskettes and share them freely with
- others. You have the luxury of trying out the complete programs, at your
- own pace and in the comfort of your own home or workplace. This is not a
- crippled or "demo" copy, but the complete working version of the program.
-
- After you have used the program for a reasonable evaluation period you
- must either discontinue use of the program or purchase a licensed copy
- from Charles Huntley or from an authorized dealer.
-
- Why pay at all?
- --------------------------------------------------------------
- * You receive a CURRENT copy of the program.
- * One year of technical support.
- * Notification of updates and new versions.
- * Notification of new products.
- * Periodic special price offers (for our registered users only).
- * Your input and ideas help shape future products.
- * A sense of pride and ownership, by having honestly
- participated in the Shareware revolution.
- * You help to keep software prices down, by supporting a
- distribution method which doesn't depend on expensive advertising
- campaigns.
-
- So please dive in and enjoy the fun of legally sharing good software
- with your friends and associates. But also be aware of the following
- restrictions, designed to protect the community of Shareware users and to
- prevent others from taking unfair advantage of the trust, hard work, and
- good will of Shareware authors. Exceptions to these conditions must be
- received in writing from Charles Huntley.
-
- 1. Disk vendors (those who sell Shareware disks for a profit) must follow
- the procedure outlined.
- 2. Vendors may not charge more than $3 per diskette.
- 3. The files and programs on the disks may not be modified or deleted.
- 4. The programs cannot be sold as part of some other more inclusive
- package.
- 5. The programs cannot be "rented" or "leased" to others.
- 6. In the case of distribution via any telecommunications link
- the following must be done:
-
- All programs (and documentation files) must be transferred
- in a library or archive format. This means that all the files on
- each disk must be combined into one file - one file for each
- disk. This is sometimes called Zip or Zoo or Arc.
-
- 7. If you're copying the disks for distribution to students in a classroom,
- you must provide them with the following written notice:
-
- +----------------------------------------------------+
- | These diskettes are distributed to you through the |
- | courtesy of (your school or instructor name) and |
- | C. Huntley. No royalty nor registration fee has |
- | been paid for the programs, which are for your use |
- | and evaluation as a student. |
- | |
- | If you wish to receive technical support and |
- | announcements of updates and improvements, you |
- | must first become a "registered user." You do |
- | that by purchasing each program you plan to use - |
- | from an authorized dealer or directly from |
- | us: |
- | |
- | Charles Huntley |

- | San Francisco, CA 94114-1693 |
- | |
- | You may also purchase by calling: |
- | (415) 431-5197 |
- +----------------------------------------------------+
-
- 8. Shareware distribution is permitted only in the United States, Canada,
- the British Isles, and Australia. Please see the section below
- entitled: SHAREWARE COPYING OUTSIDE OF THE USA.
- 9. When this program is used on a network, one licensed copy of the
- program must be purchased for each station that uses the program.
-
- +----------------------------------------+
- | SHAREWARE COPYING OUTSIDE OF THE USA |
- +----------------------------------------+
-
- 1. Shareware distribution of programs is permitted only in the
- United States, Canada, the British Isles, and Australia (the
- "Shareable Area").
-
- 2. For information on distribution of our software in countries
- outside the shareable Area please contact your local distributor. These
- distributors have exclusive distribution rights in the non-Shareable

-
- If you did not purchase this program directly from Charles Huntley or from
- an authorized dealer, then you are considered to be evaluating the
- program.
-
- We have tried to provide you with everything necessary to evaluate this
- program. The program utilizes clear, informative menus.
-
- This is sufficient for most people to do a good evaluation of the program.
- However, some people prefer to have a complete copy of the printed manual.
-
- A complete copy of the printed "User's Manual" for this program is
- available on floppy disk to help you with your evaluation of the program.
- The name of the documentation file always ends with .DOC.
-
- To print a copy on your printer Type:
-
- MS-DOS: TYPE Drive:\Dir\Program.Doc>Prn
- PC-DOS: ECHO Drive:\Dir\Program.Doc>Prn
-
- Good Luck and hope you enjoy the program.
