-
- VENDOR AND SYSOP LICENSE AND RESTRICTIONS
-
- This file provides information for shareware distributors, rack vendors,
- BBS sysops, CD-ROM and book publishers, and user groups who wish to
- distribute Snooper.
-
- Individual and company users, please refer to SNOOPER.DOC for information.
-
- Note that this archive should include a VENDINFO.DIZ file suitable for
- automated processing of this program. Please refer to that file for more
- information, and please help support the VENDINFO concept.
-
- Snooper is defined as all the files listed in the unmodified VENDINFO.DIZ
- file. Distribution is forbidden if any file listed is missing, including
- the VENDINFO.DIZ file itself, or if any file has been modified in any way
- (all files should have the same date, and the time should correspond to the
- version). The latest, complete package suitable for distribution is always
- available on the on-line distribution points listed on the first page of
- Snooper's manual, SNOOPER.DOC and in VENDINFO.DIZ.
-
-
- NAMING
-
- The Snooper archive should be named and posted as:
-
- SNOOPmnn.xxx
-
- where ``m'' is the major version number, ``nn'' is the minor number, and
- ``xxx'' is the appropriate extension. For example, a hypothetical zipped
- version 4.57 should be distributed as SNOOP457.ZIP. The extension can
- reflect the type of compression used: ZIP, ARJ, ARC, EXE if self-
- extracting, or whatever. On Compuserve, Snooper is posted as SNOOPR.ZIP,
- owing to the six-character filename limit.
