Feel free to do so for free, or to charge a reasonable materials & copying fee (less than five bux). You may compress the files at your convenience, fill the empty space with other shareware or advertising, and distribute files or parts of files with other shareware. Your customers abhor a 1/2 empty disk! For an update, write or call. Your customers will appreciate a fresh version. If you don't give a about your customers, don't bother with the update. You won't be in business long enuf for me to reply. There are six groups of files. First is header files, such as "README, COPYRIGHT, REGISTRATION, WARRANTY". Second is the book, Survey It Yourself: A Preliminary Land Survey Using the Compass and Tape Method. Files SIY*.TXT These may reside only on SLY25?A Third is executable files, such as CAVEMAP2, MSHERC, & HR. And support files, such as SHOOT_EM, COLOR, plus six EXAMPLEs. These may reside only on SLY25?B Fourth is RETIRE, some information about cheap land for sale here in the Kentucky Boonies, a good place to retire young or just have a vacation place. Fifth is FILLER, since Nature abhors a 1/2 empty disk. See SLY25??.DOX for a file by file description. Last is TAILER, files which should be at the end of the directory. I suggest that authors write short advertisements to be included on other disks, and that we leave room on our disks for advertising space. Your customers might be amused by MS_BAT. There's also SIY2LINR.BAS, a BASIC 2 liner for your collection.
