About CoolViews
    CoolViews is a utility for MacOS 8.0 and 8.1 that gives you more control over the list views in Finder windows. With CoolViews, you can reorder and resize columns, use solid background colors in lists, override date formats, and create global list view preferences.

About the Installer
    This installer will install the version of CoolViews 1.1 that runs best on your machine (PowerMac or 68K-based Mac). CoolViews will be installed in the Control Panels folder of your System Folder. A registration program and any late-breaking release notes will be installed in a “CoolViews ƒ” folder.
    Important: Because CoolViews is a modern (“APPC”) control panel, the installer may not ask you to restart your computer after installation. You should do this anyway. Also, please disable any virus detection utilities before installation. Some of these utilities can prevent CoolViews from installing properly. (Disinfectant is okay).
    If you have any problems with the installation, please contact Quadratic Software. Our email address is <support@quadratic.com>.

If you would like to use the Software on more than one computer, you must purchase multiple Single Licenses or purchase a Site License or Worldwide License as appropriate.
    The purchase of a Site License gives you the right to continue to use the Software following the expiration of the Evaluation Period on any computer owned by you or your organization within a 160 kilometer (100 mile) radius of your site.

    The Unregistered Software may not be distributed on computer-readable material such as floppy disk or CD-ROM without the consent of the Author.
    With the consent of the Author, CD-ROM distributors may charge end users for those costs associated with the distribution of the material upon which the Unregistered Software is recorded, such as the costs associated with materials, postage, packaging, or labor. CD-ROM distributors may not attempt to make a direct profit from such charges. With the consent of the Author, CD-ROM distributors may provide end users with copies of the Unregistered Software free-of-charge for the purpose of promoting or marketing another product by which the distributors hope to make a profit (such as a magazine), as long as the other terms of this License with respect to the distribution of the Unregistered Software are met.

4. Duplication and Distribution of the Registered Software
    The Author grants the purchaser of a Single User License the right to make two (2) copies of the Registered Software for their own personal archival purposes, for as many computers as they have purchased Single User Licenses.
    The purchaser of a Single User License may duplicate the Registered Software and install it on a computer different from the computer for which the Single User License was purchased, provided that the Registered Software on the original computer is then promptly deleted.
    The purchaser of a Site License or Worldwide License may duplicate and install the Registered Software on any machine governed by the terms of the Site License or Worldwide License as detailed in section one (1) of this License.
