ARJ LICENSE POLICY April 1993
The ARJ archiver, the REARJ program, the ARJSFX module, the ARJSFXJR
module, the DEARJ program, the ARJR program, and the associated
documentation are copyright (c) 1990-93 Robert K Jung, all rights
reserved. The ARJ software may not be circulated in any incomplete or
modified form, nor sold for profit, without written permission of the
author.
If you distribute this software to others, you are required to
distribute the ENTIRE package consisting of the following files:
ARJ.EXE
ARJ.DOC
ARJ_BBS.DOC
ARJBACK.BAT
ARJREST.BAT
ARJINCR.BAT
ARJSORT.BAT
ARJSORT.COM
ARJSORT.DOC
CREDIT.CRD

WHY_ARJ.DOC
We strongly prefer that the files be distributed in the format
originally released: ARJ###.EXE (### = version) with the ARJ-SECURITY
envelope as created by the author. If you must distribute the ARJ
archive in another archive format, please archive the ARJ###.EXE as
one file inside the other archive. Re-archival of the software as
separate files means losing the ARJ security envelope.
As a brief description of ARJ, we suggest the following:
"ARJ is an archiver that produces the smallest or nearly the smallest
archive files. It is very fast and has a rich set of features which
include convenient file directory handling, file generations, text
searching, archive recovery, configurable command options, multiple
volume archives (archives that span diskettes) and much more."
You may NOT distribute the registered version of ARJ or the registered
version of REARJ or any version of ARJR, and DEARJ except as noted in
your ARJ license agreement. ARJR is the ARJ program minus the help
screens and SFX/SFXJR modules. DEARJ is the ARJR program minus the
archive modification/creation functions. ARJR and DEARJ are available
only to registered and licensed users. See the ORDERFRM.DOC for
ordering information. Those who have made donations to ARJ may
upgrade to a full registration with full credit for your previous
donation(s). Please note the previous donation on your order as a
reminder.
The use and/or sale of ARJ, ARJR, DEARJ, REARJ, ARJSFX, and ARJSFXJR
(ARJ package) is subject to the following terms:
PERSONAL USE:
For personal use (away from the office and non-commercial), ARJ,
ARJSFX, and ARJSFXJR may be freely used and shared with others. There
is no REQUIRED registration fee for non-commercial, non-business,
non-institutional, non-government personal use.
For personal use, the program REARJ may be freely used only by ARJ
users. An ARJ user is one who uses ARJ on a regular basis. Others
who wish to use REARJ must purchase a registration for the ARJ
package.
If you find the ARJ package useful, you are encouraged to register
your copy: INDIVIDUAL REGISTRATION ... $40 (US).
The user who registers receives several benefits:
* Technical support by telephone or mail. You can get help with any
questions or problems you encounter in using ARJ.
* The opportunity to order the latest version of ARJ and ARJ upgrades
on disk directly from the author.
* The opportunity to order the latest versions of REARJ, ARJR, DEARJ,
and UNARJ C source code. Most of these are only available to
registered users.
* The satisfaction of knowing that you are supporting the development
of good, affordable software.
BULLETIN BOARD SYSTEM (BBS) USE:
ARJ and REARJ may be freely used on non-commercial computer bulletin
board systems where ARJ is one of the supported primary archive
formats. The use of ARJ and/or REARJ on a BBS where ARJ is not one of
the supported primary archive formats requires a registration or site
license.
Support of ARJ involves allowing ARJ archives as uploads AND making
ARJ archives available as downloads.
A subscription BBS is not necessarily considered a COMMERCIAL BBS. A
BBS that is operated to make money is considered a COMMERCIAL BBS. A
BBS operated by a business for the purposes of the business is
considered a COMMERCIAL BBS.
INSTITUTIONAL/COMMERCIAL SITE LICENSE/REGISTRATION:
Any corporation, institution, government agency or business wishing to
use the ARJ software in the course of its internal business must
purchase an ARJ registration or SITE LICENSE. Any individual wishing
to use the ARJ software within a corporation, institution, government
agency or business must purchase an ARJ registration or SITE LICENSE.
The SITE LICENSE is provided for those who want to use ARJ on multiple
computers. A sample SITE LICENSE for the internal use of the ARJ
software is included at the end of this document. Please see the
ORDERFRM.DOC or write for terms.
Any corporation, institution, government agency or business may use
the unregistered shareware version of ARJ only for evaluation purposes
and only for a thirty day period. After the thirty day period, you
must either register ARJ or discontinue its use. If you register ARJ,
you may continue to use the unregistered ARJ program until you receive
the registered version.
This internal license does NOT license the inclusion of ARJ software
with a hardware/software package that is distributed externally.
For the purposes of this license, a SITE is considered a group of
computers/users provided primary technical support from one location.
This definition of a SITE is subject to change.
Each computer that uses ARJ, ARJSFX, or ARJSFXJR in any way requires
licensing. In addition, computers that are being backed up with ARJ
via a file server require licensing. For example, if computer Z's
data is copied to a file server and that file server uses ARJ to
archive Z's data, then computer Z needs to be licensed for ARJ.
Examples of institutional or commercial use of ARJ:
1) Using ARJ to backup your business programs and/or data.
2) Using ARJ to create archives for storing or transporting business
data.
3) Using ARJ on a company supplied home computer for company
business.
4) Using ARJ to backup your research programs and/or data.
5) Using ARJ on your home business computer for business purposes.
The above examples should NOT be construed as the ONLY types of
institutional or commercial use of ARJ.
SHAREWARE DISTRIBUTION USE BY INDIVIDUALS:
The use of ARJ to create an ARJ format archive (*.ARJ) for the purpose
of distributing shareware or freeware to computer bulletin board
systems IS NOT considered commercial use. However, any other use of
ARJ in connection with a shareware product IS commercial use. For
example, using ARJ to backup shareware source code IS commercial use.
The inclusion of the ARJSFX/ARJSFXJR modules in software to create
self-extracting ARJ archives that are to be distributed requires a
distribution license.
DISTRIBUTION LICENSE:
Standard ARJ format archives (*.ARJ) may be distributed without a
license. The UNARJ.EXE program distributed separately may be freely
used and distributed without a license.
Any corporation, institution, government agency or business wishing to
include DEARJ, ARJSFX or ARJSFXJR (self-extracting ARJ archives) as an
integral part of a software and/or hardware package to be distributed
externally must purchase a DISTRIBUTION LICENSE. The use of ARJ on
one computer to build the software and/or hardware package is included
in the DISTRIBUTION LICENSE.
The above requirement does NOT apply to those who did NOT initiate
the inclusion of the ARJ software with the software and/or hardware
package.
Please write for terms providing your distribution details:
1) Expected distribution numbers per year or in total.
2) The number of diskettes required before and after compression.
3) The approximate value/price of the package.
4) A brief description of the software/hardware.
5) A description of how ARJ will be used in the distribution.
If you wish to use the archiver ARJ or the conversion program REARJ in
your application software, the pricing is similar to the INTERNAL SITE
LICENSE price schedule. Please write for terms.
RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONAL USE:
To obtain the donation of a SITE LICENSE and/or DISTRIBUTION LICENSE,
please write providing details of your organization's religious and
charitable activities and the intended use for ARJ. A free license
will be provided to qualifying organizations. Qualifications will be
determined on a purely subjective basis. Non-qualifying organizations
can always obtain licenses by purchase.
Non-religious non-profit organizations promoting causes that do not
conflict with our personal ethics and faith may also qualify for a
free license.
COMMERCIAL SALE:
Any software dealer or library may distribute the entire ARJ package
in an unmodified form for a fee as long as the price charged for the
disk containing ARJ does not exceed US $10.00. You may NOT distribute
any version of ARJR or DEARJ (not the same as UNARJ).
With this single exception, the sale of ARJ or its parts for profit,
either alone or together with other software or hardware, requires a
licensing agreement possibly providing for royalty payments.
Please write for terms.
CUSTOM VERSIONS OF ARJ:
Customized versions of ARJ or the self-extraction ARJSFX modules can
be licensed. Please write for terms describing your requirements.
Customized versions may take a few days to several weeks or more to
build.
UPGRADE POLICY FOR ARJ:
Registered/licensed users of ARJ may upgrade ARJ to the next DOT
release (2.1 to 2.2, etc) for a small diskette fee. See the
ORDERFRM.DOC for details.
UNARJ SOURCE CODE:
Available in a separately distributed archive is the program UNARJ.EXE
and its C source code. UNARJ is a simple ARJ archive extraction
program.
You may freely use, copy, and distribute UNARJ.EXE, provided that no
fee is charged for such use, copying or distribution.
This source code is intended to promote the building of utilities to
support the use of ARJ and ARJ archives.
ARJ-SECURITY ENVELOPE USE:
This feature is intended for but not limited to software developers
who wish to distribute archived software with some assurance that the
archived software in a validated ARJ-SECURED archive will be secure.
We reserve the right to limit the distribution of ARJ-SECURITY serial
codes.
This feature may ONLY be used by those who have purchased an
ARJ-SECURITY serial number.
Please see the ORDERFRM.DOC or write for terms.

ARJ-SECURITY, and UNARJ) is provided on an "as is" basis without
