LhA License Page 1
1 Registration
LhA is a copyrighted product that has been made available to
you under the concept of "Shareware". It has never been, nor
will it ever be in the "Public Domain". You are granted a
limited license in order to evaluate these programs. If, after a
3 or 4 week period of evaluation, you find that LhA suits your
archiving needs, please register.
IF YOU DO NOT REGISTER AFTER THIS PERIOD YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED
TO USE THE PROGRAM (since you obviously didn't think it was worth
using).
By cooperating with this concept you help to ensure continued
development of this product.
Registered users will be shipped a disk with the latest
release version of LhA together with a keyfile. This keyfile,
once copied to your system, will disable the ShareWare reminders
that always open when you start or quit the Intuition driven
programs in the LhA family. The registered-user version of LhA
has all the features of the evaluation version, as well as
several additional commands, options and features. The registered
version is also up to 50% faster than the evaluation version.
Site license information for commercial and government use can
be obtained directly from the author.
No person(s) or businesses other than the author are
authorized to accept any registration or distribution fees in any
form whatsoever, except as specified by the author. The only
people who will be regarded as registered users are those who
have sent SEK 100, USD 20, 25 IRC's or more to:
Stefan Boberg
Rydsvägen 242 A:25
S-58251 Linköping
Sweden / Europe
Be sure to provide me with your name, address,
fido-nodenumber/InterNet address for filing purposes. If you
don't mind, this data will be stored and processed in electronic
form. There is a sample registration form you can fill in in the
file "OrderForm".
Please allow two to eight weeks for delivery. Usually you will
be sent your registered version right away, but if a new version
is near completion, I will wait until it has been finished unless
you explicitly tell me to send a version right away.

2 Distribution
Basically, the evaluation version of LhA may be distributed
freely as long as the following conditions are met:
The distributor may only charge a fee up to the costs of
obtaining a public domain diskette from Fred Fish. The
distributor agrees to cease distributing the programs and data
involved if requested to do so by the author. The distributor
may only distribute an unmodified copy of the original program,
with all the supplied documentation and copyright notices left
intact.
For more details, see the "License" section.
3 Support
If you have any suggestions, bug reports or questions, please
contact the author of LhA at the address given earlier or at one
of the electronic mail addresses below:
InterNet: boberg@lysator.liu.se
or : lha@augs.se
FIDONet : "Stefan Boberg" at node 2:204/404
When sending in bug reports, please state exactly under what
circumstances the bug occurred, what equipment was used and what
happened. If possible also try to give me enough information to
reproduce the bug. It is very difficult to find bugs when you
don't know exactly what happened. Please don't just send
messages like "it can't extract files from archives sometimes",
that really doesn't help me. If possible, submit the offending
file/archive to me so I can test it myself, or give me a pointer
where I can find the archive.
4 Program availability
The latest version of LhA is always available for anonymous
FTP at lysator.liu.se, in `/pub/amiga/lha_e???.run' - it is a
self-extracting archive that should be executed from CLI or WB2.0
to extract the contents. It will also be available for FidoNet
FReq from AUGS BBS in Linköping, Sweden, under the magic filename
`LHA', the Fido node number is 2:204/404.
