License Agreement
This section tells you is how to become a registered
user once you decide that you like the program and want to
use it on a regular basis.
Navstar is distributed under the shareware marketing
concept; it is not free software and it has not been released
to the public domain. The documentation, executable images,
and all other files distributed with Navstar are copyrighted.
Shareware is a way of distributing computer software
that allows you to try out a program before you purchase it.
Programs distributed as shareware typically give you some
period of time to use the program and evaluate its usefulness
to you. If the program doesn't meet your needs, you're under
no obligation to pay for it. If you do find the program
useful and wish to continue using it on a regular basis, the
shareware program's author usually requests that you pay for
the program by sending him or her a completed registration
form and payment. This is the approach I have taken in making
Navstar available to the public.
If you find Navstar to be a useful addition to your
software library, you're requested to become a registered
user by completing the enclosed registration form and
returning it along with the indicated license/registration
fee. I hope that you will agree that the $30.00 license fee
is a small price to pay for the continued use of the program.
It requires a large investment to develop, market, and
support a product of this complexity. Your support in the
form of a license/registration fee will continue to make good
software available at low prices.
Quantity discounts are available to business,
government, and other organizations that wish to use Navstar
on multiple computer systems. Navstar is also available at
very special rates to organizations who wish to use it in
promotional campaigns. Write the author for information on
using the program this way.
You are granted a limited license to use and examine
Navstar on a trial basis to determine if Navstar is suitable
for your needs. If you find Navstar useful and continue to
use it on a regular basis, you should complete and return the
registration form along with the indicated
license/registration fee.

You are encouraged to make copies of Navstar for the
trial use of other individuals and organizations, subject to
the following restrictions:
1) All Navstar distribution files must be copied in
unmodified form, including the documentation, help, and
executable image files.
2) You may not include any other files with the
distributed copy.
3) You may not request compensation of any sort for
providing the copy. This restriction does not apply to
computer clubs and user groups who distribute software
to their members for a nominal fee.
You may not distribute Navstar with any other product or
service without written permission of the copyright holder.
Navstar may be included on electronic bulletin board
systems for downloading by users of the bulletin board
provided the above restrictions are met.
Navstar and all accompanying materials are provided "as
is" without warranty of any kind. The entire risk of using
Navstar is assumed by you.
The author, Christopher R. S. Schanck, makes no warranty
of any kind, expressed or implied, including but not limited
to any warranties of merchantability and fitness for a
particular purpose.
In no event will the author, Christopher R. S. Schanck,
be liable for any damages whatsoever arising out of your use
or inability to use the program.
If you use Navstar on a regular basis, you should
complete the registration form at the end of this document
and return it along with the indicated license/registration
fee. Registration gives you the right to use the software as
documented in the license.
The registration fee of $30.00 establishes you as a
registered user of Navstar. You will not receive any software
directly from the author, but you will, from time to time,
receive notification when updated versions of Navstar are
released.
