│ This is a VENDINFO Product Information Record │
│ │
│ This record is a means of conveying information about a software │
│ product from the author to distributors and users. It contains a │
│ normal, "human-readable" section (you're reading it now), followed │
│ by a compressed data record. The data record contains a great │
│ deal of information in a form useable by automated tools. This │
│ allows BBSes, disk vendors, etc. to test automatically for │
│ permission to distribute, and to automatically extract product │
│ information for use in BBS files databases, vendor catalogs, etc. │
│ │
│ The VENDINFO file standard is published and is freely useable. │
│ │
│ The VENDINFO toolset includes a free end-user viewer, processing │
│ tools for use by distributors (BBSes, shareware disk vendors, │
│ etc.), and the editor used by author/publishers to produce these │
│ records. These tools are either free or very-low cost shareware. │
│ The toolset can be obtained from many sources, including the │

===== Installation =====================================
The installation procedure for CrossWords is quite simple. The package
includes a program which automates the entire process. You will need
about 360K of available disk space on the hard drive on which you plan
to install CrossWords.
The exact steps you need to take will depend on how you received
CrossWords.
INSTALLING FROM DISKETTES
To install from diskette(s), you need to perform the following steps.
o Place CrossWords distribution diskette "Disk 1" in the
appropriate diskette drive.
o Run Microsoft Windows 3.1. If you do not have Microsoft Windows
3.1 installed on your machine, follow the instructions in the
Microsoft Windows manual before proceeding.
o Execute the "INSTALL.EXE" program on the distribution diskette.
For example, if the distribution diskette is on drive A:, select
File Run from the Program Manager and type "a:install".
o Follow the instructions presented by the installation program.
You will have a chance to approve installation before any changes
are actually made to the contents of your hard drive. The
program will ask you for a destination directory, and will copy
the CrossWords files to that directory. It will make no other
changes; specifically, it will not modify your autoexec.bat or
config.sys files.
INSTALLING FROM A HARD DRIVE
If you downloaded CrossWords from a BBS (or received it in the form of
archive files from some other source), you will not need to do
anything further. The fact that you are reading this message will
indicate that CrossWords has been installed on your machine.
YOU'RE READY TO GO
Once you've complete the installation, you should consult the documents
(filename extension "doc") which have been installed. In particular,
read at least README.DOC. That document will tell you how to invoke the
program, and will give you other information you need to properly
evaluate CrossWords. I hope you enjoy the program.
===== License for Use and Distribution =================
WHAT IS SHAREWARE
Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before
buying it. If you try a Shareware program and continue using it, you are
expected to register. Individual programs differ on details -- some
request registration while others require it, some specify a maximum
trial period. With registration, you get anything from the simple right
to continue using the software to an updated program with printed
manual.
Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial software, and the
copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific exceptions as
stated below. Shareware authors are accomplished programmers, just like
commercial authors, and the programs are of comparable quality. (In both
cases, there are good programs and bad ones!) The main difference is in
the method of distribution. The author specifically grants the right to
copy and distribute the software, either to all and sundry or to a
specific group. For example, some authors require written permission
before a commercial disk vendor may copy their Shareware.
Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You should
find software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether it's
commercial or Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting your needs
easier, because you can try before you buy. And because the overhead is
low, prices are low also. Shareware has the ultimate money-back
guarantee -- if you don't use the product, you don't pay for it.
DISCLAIMER - AGREEMENT
Users of CrossWords must accept this disclaimer of warranty: "CrossWords
is supplied as is. The author 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 CrossWords."
CrossWords is a "shareware program" and is provided at no charge
to the user for evaluation. Feel free to share it with your friends,
but please do not give it away altered or 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
enjoy this program and wish to receive more puzzles, you must make a
registration payment to the author. The 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's being used at another. Just as a book cannot
be read by two different persons at the same time.
Anyone distributing CrossWords for any kind of remuneration must
first contact Glen DeBiasa for authorization.
This authorization will be automatically granted to distributors
recognized by the Association of Shareware Professionals (ASP) as
adhering to its guidelines for shareware distributors, and such
distributors may begin offering CrossWords immediately (however, Glen
DeBiasa must still be advised so that the distributor can be kept
up-to-date with the latest version of CrossWords.).
You are encouraged to pass a copy of CrossWords along to your
friends for evaluation. Please encourage them to register their copy if
they find that they can use it. All registered users will receive a
copy of the latest version of CrossWords plus at least 30 new puzzles.
The attached VENDINFO data record is hereby incorporated by reference.
Any distribution satisfying all the distribution requirements expressed
in that data record is hereby authorized.
