CTS Serial Port Utilities README.1ST
The CTS Serial Port Utilities is shareware. The exclusive copyrights to
this program are held by Computer Telecommunication Systems, Inc.
Please refer to the following files for license and distribution
information:
VENDOR.DOC Information for Shareware Distributors, Disk Vendors
and Computer Clubs.
SYSOP.DOC Information for Bulletin Board SYSOP's.
LICENSE.DOC Information for Individuals.
------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE
------------------------------------------------------------------
There is one change in PortInfo from the User Guide in this
release: the ESP port detection is now optional. While I have had
no confirmed reports of problems, there is a slight possibility of
a system lockup when looking for an ESP enhanced address.
To enable the ESP detection in PortInfo, enter the new command line
switch "/ESP". When you run PortInfo without this switch, the port
will be detected as a 16550A UART. With the "/ESP" command and an
installed ESP-compatable card, the port will be reported as an
"ESP550".

WHAT IS SHAREWARE?
------------------------------------------------------------------
Shareware is a distribution (or marketing) method that gives you the
opportunity to try out software before making your purchase decision.
It has become a major force in the software industry, helping to reduce
software prices and eliminate copy protection schemes. If you try the
CTS Serial Port Utilities package and continue using it, you are
required to register.
You are encouraged to copy the CTS Serial Port Utilities Shareware
diskette(s) and share them freely with others. You may try out the
complete program at your own pace, and then decide if the CTS Serial Port
Utilities is an application you want on your computer. This is not a
disabled or demo copy, but the complete working version of the program.
If you should try the SPU and have a problem, PLEASE let us know. We
work hard to eliminate all problems and add new programs as needed by
users. But if you don't tell us, we may not know! Or, we may have already
resolved the problem and have a solution ready for you.
If you use the SPU to resolve a problem with your system, then you
are obligated to purchase a license. You've successfully used the
SPU for it's intended purpose, so please consider this as a
"successful evaluation" and purchase the software. You have received
a value from the software which we worked hard to provide for you.
After you have used the CTS Serial Port Utilities (SPU) package for
a reasonable evaluation period (not to exceed 30 days) you must
either stop using it or buy a licensed copy from Computer
Telecommunication Systems, Inc.
Why pay at all?
* You receive the latest copy of the SPU
* If included with your license option, a printed copy of the
expanded 86 page (8.5x11") User Guide including 30 pages of
introductory and tutorial information about serial port and IRQs.
* Bonus utilities, including FIND_COM, RESETMOD (ResetModem) and
HANGUP (if included with your license option)
* A copy of our new guides on installing a modem or serial port and
troubleshooting serial ports (if included with your license option)
* Personal support via phone, mail, fax, or electronic mail
* Notification of updates and new products
* Free bug fixes
* Inexpensive updates after your free updates expire
* Occasional special price offers (for registered users only)
* Your input and ideas help shape future products
* The satisfaction of helping to keep software prices down, by
supporting a distribution method which doesn't depend on expensive
advertising campaigns
