- Thank you for examining Paladin for Wave Blaster ("Paladin").
-
- Paladin is a full featured editor for developing new sounds on your
- Wave Blaster, and it is a librarian for managing those sounds.
- Extensive automatic online help and a mouse interface makes Paladin
- easy to learn and fast and intuitive to use.
-
- This is the Unregistered Shareware version of Paladin for Creative
- Lab's Wave Blaster only. It is incompatible with other Proteus modules.
-
- A version of Paladin is available that will automatically configure
- itself to work with multiple Proteus modules of different types,
- including modules with custom wavesets, Vintage Keys, and the Wave
- Blaster. For additional information on this, please send email to
- author at the address given below.
-
- Before running Paladin for the first time, you must first run
- the INSTALL program. This installs the working PAL.EXE and
- subdirectories in place, in the same directory as INSTALL.
-
- Paladin has extensive automatic online help: When you pass the mouse
- cursor over any active area of the screen (a command or control)
- Paladin prints a message at the bottom of the screen telling you
- about it. For this reason there is little need for an extensive
- manual. However, the file "MANUAL.TXT" does contain some useful
- additional information. It is brief and worth at least a quick
- glance, even if you are of an anti-manual persuasion.
-
- This Unregistered version of Paladin is fully functional but somewhat
- less convenient than the Registered version because it allows you
- to load only Setup or Library files named DEFAULT. You can save
- changes without restriction, either to DEFAULT or to a new filename.
- But you can only load files named DEFAULT back into Paladin.
-
- Paladin is supplied as is. The author, John Dunn, disclaims all
- warranties, expressed or implied, including, without limitation, the
- warranties of merchantability and of fitness for any purpose. The
- author assumes no liability for damages, direct or consequential,
- which may result from the use of Paladin.
-
- Paladin is a "shareware program" and is provided at no charge to the
- user for evaluation. Feel free to share it with your friends, but be
- sure to give only the full package (including this file) not altered
- in any way, and not as part of another system.
-
- The essence of "user-supported" software is to provide personal
- computer users with quality software without high prices, and yet to
- provide incentive for programmers to continue to develop new
- products. If you find this program useful and find that you are
- using Paladin and continue to use Paladin after a reasonable trial
- period, you must make a registration payment of $29.00 to the author
- at the address given below.
-
- The $29.00 registration fee will license one copy for use on any one
- computer at any one time. You must treat this software just like a
- book. An example is that this software may be used by any number of
- people and may be freely moved from one computer location to another,
- so long as there is no possibility of it being used at one location
- while it is being used at another. Just as a book cannot be read by
- two different persons at the same time.
-
- Commercial users of Paladin must register and pay for their copies of
- Paladin within 30 days of first use or their license is withdrawn.
- Site-License arrangements may be made by contacting the author at the
- address given below.
-
- Anyone distributing Paladin for any kind of remuneration must first
- contact the author at the address given below.
-
- You are encouraged to pass a copy of Paladin along to your friends

- find that they can use it. All users who register will receive a
- copy of the latest Registered Version of Paladin.
