- Copyright note
- --------------
-
- fsck, eliminate, hardfix and any eventual companion utility are SHAREWARE and
- are copyright Sergio Monesi 1994, 1995. They are NOT Public Domain.
-
-
- Conditions of distribution
- --------------------------
-
- You can copy and distribute fsck (from now, with fsck I indicate the whole
- fsck suite) as long as you include in the distribution all the text files,
- executables and other bits without changing them in any way.
- You cannot distribute any part of fsck separately (except the file MapExpl).
-
- Here is the full list of files currently distributed with fsck:
- - fsck
- - eliminate
- - hardfix
- - fsck_help
- - elim_help
- - hard_help
- - !SHAREWARE
- - !QuickFix
- - !Intro
- - MapExpl
- - StatsHelp
-
- Magazines, PD libraries, FTP sites and any other kind of public distribution
- systems are free to distribute fsck, but I'd like to be informed, so that I
- can eventually keep them up to date.
-
- fsck CANNOT be included in a commercial package without my approvation.
-
-
- Conditions of use
- -----------------
-
- fsck is SHAREWARE: this means that you can try it but if you like what it does
- you have to register.
- Considering that fsck should not be used so often (even if it can be
- effectively used as a CheckMap replacement), the tipical 2 weeks trial period
- isn't appropriate. If you think it will be useful to you (or, even better, if
- it cured your disc) or if you use it regularly instead of CheckMap, you have
- to register.
- To register you simply have to send me a small registration fee (in the form of
- bank notes): 5 pounds, 15.000 lire, 20 marks, 10 US dollars, 50 francs, 25 Nlg.
- or equivalent.
- If you want you can include a disc and, say, 2 pounds for mail costs, and I
- will send you the latest version and some other PD program.
- I'd like to be informed if fsck fixed your HD map (and also if it failed), so
- that I'll update the help file.
-
-
- A small note
- ------------
-
- If you now are using an improved version of fsck, is especially because there
- is someone who encouraged me to continue its development by sending me a
- registration fee. I freely distribute this new version instead of sending it
- only to registered users because this is the spirit of ShareWare: I hope I
- will not regret of this choice!
-
- I recently finished to develop a new desktop version of the fsck suite
- (called FSCK³).
- It features:
- - completely new desktop interface
- - multitask disc scans
- - integrated hardfix and eliminate
- - file fixing
- - easy-to-setup automatic scan on bootup
- - map displayer program (including ability to show the position of the files
- on disc)
-
- I don't know if I'll release FSCK³ as ShareWare or if I'll try to release it
- as a commercial program... I think that, in any case, I'll delay its public
- release until september 1995.
