DEFINITION OF SHAREWARE
Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before buying it.
If you try a Shareware program and continue using it, you are expected to
register. Individual programs differ on details -- some request registration
while others require it, some specify a maximum trial period. With
registration, you get anything from the simple right to continue using the
software to an updated program with printed manual.
Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial software, and the
copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific exceptions as stated
below. Shareware authors are accomplished programmers, just like commercial
authors, and the programs are of comparable quality. (In both cases, there
are good programs and bad ones!) The main difference is in the method of
distribution. The author specifically grants the right to copy and distribute
the software, either to all and sundry or to a specific group. For example,
some authors require written permission before a commercial disk vendor may
copy their Shareware.
Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You should find
software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether it's commercial or
Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting your needs easier, because you
can try before you buy. And because the overhead is low, prices are low also.
Shareware has the ultimate money-back guarantee -- if you don't use the
product, you don't pay for it.
DISCLAIMER - AGREEMENT
Users of SWLOGit(tm) must accept this disclaimer of warranty:
"SWLOGit(tm) is supplied as is. The author disclaims all warranties,
expressed or implied, including, without limitation, the warranties of
merchantability and of fitness for any purpose. The author assumes no
liability for damages, direct or consequential, which may result from the
use of SWLOGit(tm)."
SWLOGit(tm) is a "shareware program" and is provided at no charge to the
user for evaluation. Feel free to share it with your friends, but please
do not give it away altered or as part of another system. SWLOGit(tm) must
be copied complete, including the files SWLOGit.DOC, LICENSE.DOC, AND
ORDER.DOC.
The essence of "user-supported" software is to provide personal computer users
with quality software without high prices, and yet to provide incentive for
programmers to continue to develop new products. If you find this program
useful and find that you are using SWLOGit(tm) and continue to use SWLOGit(tm)
after a reasonable trial period of 30 days, you must make a registration
payment of $25.00(Canadian) or $20.00(US) funds) to DAVID TOSTE.
This registration fee will license one copy for use on any one computer at any
one time. You must treat this software just like a book. An example is that
this software may be used by any number of people and may be freely moved from
one computer location to another, so long as there is no possibility of it
being used at one location while it's being used at another. Just as a book
cannot be read by two different persons at the same time.
Commercial users of SWLOGit(tm) must register and pay for their copies of
SWLOGit(tm) within 30 days of first use or their license is withdrawn.
Commercial and government Site-License arrangements may be made by contacting
DAVID TOSTE.
Operators of electronic bulletin board systems may post SWLOGit(tm) for
downloading by their users as long as the conditions described in this
license are met.
Anyone distributing SWLOGit(tm) for any kind of remuneration must first
contact DAVID TOSTE at the address below for authorization. This
authorization will be automatically granted to distributors recognized
by the (ASP) as adhering to its guidelines for shareware distributors, and
such distributors may begin offering SWLOGit(tm) immediately (However
DAVID TOSTE must still be advised so that the distributor can be kept
up-to-date with the latest version of SWLOGit(tm).).
You are encouraged to pass a copy of SWLOGit(tm) along to your friends
for evaluation. Please encourage them to register their copy if they
find that they can use it.
