Limited Distribution License:
-----------------------------
As the exclusive copyright holder for CodePrint, Geist
Microsystems authorizes distribution only in accordance with the
following restrictions.
ASP Approved Vendors in good standing are hereby given
permission to distribute the CodePrint package. Non-ASP member
vendors must request permission prior to distributing this
package.
The CodePrint 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 CodePrint 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 CodePrint 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 CodePrint
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 CodePrint 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 Geist
Microsystems.
ASP Approved Vendors who wish to distribute the CodePrint
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.

Geist Microsystems CodePrint for C/C++
Vendors (non-ASP Vendor Members) who wish to distribute the
CodePrint package as part of a collection (such as PsL's
MegaDisk set, or a CD-ROM package) must obtain permission from
Geist Microsystems 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 twelve (12) months old then please
contact us to ensure that you have the most current version.
This version was released in January 1996.
Disk-of-the-Month (or Subscription) Distribution:
-------------------------------------------------
If you would like to distribute the CodePrint 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 CodePrint package under the
Disk-of-the-Month style of distribution.
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 Geist
Microsystems. In other words, the disk-based documentation may
not be distributed in PRINTED (hardcopy) form.
The CodePrint 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.
Geist Microsystems prohibits the distribution of outdated
versions of the CodePrint package, without written permission
from Geist Microsystems. If the version you have is over twelve
(12) months old, please contact us to ensure that you have the
most current version. This version was released in December 1995.

Vendor 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 program (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 each program (Countries outside of North
America please add an additional $10 per program). 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 January 1996):
CodePrint for C/C++
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 programs, then you may prefer not to use our Vendor Update
Program.
