This software is provided "as is". The author of this software is not responsible for damage of any kind caused by TextShield (and any other programs as well, of course). You are completely responsible for using this program. You may not alter TextShield (TextShield.exe), this license, the help files and any other files which are contained inside this package. TextShield is copyrighted material, so you have no right to alter or claim authorship, and you may not use it as a resource. You may not decompile or reverse engineer TextShield.exe. You may not use any of the features you'll find in TextShield in your own programs without permission of the author. And finally, TextShield may never be sold for money. It is free, and it stays free.
 
Usage of the "Copy to Floppy" feature
 
You may copy TextShield to a floppy and use it at another computer, but everyone who uses TextShield from this floppy, must agree to this license.
