Serious System Information
Copyright 1992-1996 Vias and Associates
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 former six-character filename limit.

LIMITED DISTRIBUTION LICENSE
As the exclusive copyright holder for Snooper, Vias and Associates
authorizes distribution of Snooper in accordance with the following
restrictions:
* Distribute the program and its related files together, intact and
unmodified. Vendors may add an installation program and a small text
file with further instructions.
* Don't reproduce the printed documentation in any way.
* Don't "bundle" Snooper with another product or service without our
prior written permission. This restriction applies but is not limited
to: systems dealers, consultants, VARs, and book and magazine
publishers. We are usually willing to agree to bundling deals, but you
must ask first.
* If we ask you to stop distributing Snooper, do so.
Shareware vendors, rack vendors, CD-ROM and book publishers, and other
businesses are also subject to the following restrictions:
* Your advertisements, catalogs, and other literature must clearly
explain that the user must pay the author for shareware he or she
uses, and that the money paid the vendor for the disk does not satisfy
the user's obligation to the author.
* If the version you have is over six months old, please ensure that you
have the most current version by finding Snooper on the on-line
distribution points listed on the first page of Snooper's manual.
All rights not expressly granted here are reserved to Vias and Associates.
