THE SHAREWARE CONCEPT

  Shareware is licensed commercial software which the authors make available
  on a try-before-you-buy basis.  Users may evaluate a Shareware product for a
  period usually between 30 and 90 days, by the end of which they must either
  pay for the product (known as Registration) or stop using it.

  Copying of Shareware, subject to the above conditions, is not only allowed,
  it is encouraged.  Pass copies on to interested friends and colleagues.
  Shareware authors rely on the integrity of users to abide by the conditions
  of the license, and register the product if they want to continue using it.
  Many, like ARK ANGLES and SWORDSOFT, also give added benefits to users who
  register.


ABOUT THIS PRODUCT

  This program is Shareware, and may be freely copied and distributed subject
  to the terms described in the VENDOR.DOC file.  The program may be tried out
  for up to 60 days without charge, after which time users should register it
  or cease to use it.

  Note that Shareware does not mean Freeware or Public Domain.  This program
  is licensed software, and copying or using it without paying for it, except
  as provided above, is a breach of copyright.


WHY REGISTER?

  As stated, the license for this product entitles you to try it out for up to
  60 days.  Use of the unregistered product beyond that period is a breach of
  copyright and is against the law.  But apart from the legal obligation,
  there are many benefits to be gained from registering.  You will receive:

   o  a copy of the latest version of the program, plus
   o  60 more exciting and challenging levels, plus
   o  a utility to create your own levels, plus
   o  a printed manual with details of "hidden" and "cheat" features, plus
   o  a bonus game, plus
   o  12 months support, plus
   o  periodic news and upgrade information, plus
   o  the satisfaction of supporting value software through Shareware.


PRICING

  Single Registration is A$15 or US$12, which entitles you to all the benefits
  listed above.  Single registration gives a license for use of the program by
  one user or on one machine.

  Special licensing arrangements are available for schools or businesses or
  anywhere there are multiple machines or users at the one site.

  Add $5 (Australian or US) to each order and we'll ship it anywhere in the
  world.

  Significant updates are released regularly, and unregistered copies of the
  latest version are available from ARK ANGLES for just the shipping charge
  of $5 each, or from many good Shareware vendors.

  All prices are subject to change without notice.


HOW TO REGISTER

  Nothing is simpler.  We accept cash (of course), cheques (but may wait for
  them to clear if they are large amounts), credit cards (Bankcard, Visa or
  Mastercard), bank drafts (in A$ or US$) or Money Orders.

  There are four main ways to register:

  1. PHONE:  Get your credit card ready, and all the details of your equipment
     as listed in the ORDER.DOC file.  Then call us on [phone] for
     Australian customers or Intl+61-47-588100 for overseas customers.

  2. FAX:  If you have a fax card on your computer, then simply edit the file
     ORDER.DOC with all the necessary information, otherwise print ORDER.DOC
     and fill in in manually.  Make sure all the credit card info is there,
     then just fax it to us on [phone] for Australian customers or
     Intl+61-47-588638 for overseas customers.

  3. MAIL:  Print ORDER.DOC and fill it in, make sure your credit card info
     is there, or include a cheque, draft or money order, and post the lot to
     ARK ANGLES at 24 Alexander Ave, Hazelbrook NSW 2779, Australia.

  4. VISIT:  We're always happy to see anyone, so if you're close, just print
     ORDER.DOC and fill it in, excluding the shipping charge, and call in to
     see us with your cash, cheque or credit card at 24 Alexander Ave,
     Hazelbrook NSW.

  When registering, please indicate full name, address and telephone number,
  and details of equipment on which the program will be run (processor type,
  memory and disk sizes, graphics capability, and DOS/Windows/OS/2 versions).
  The easiest way to do this is by filling in the ORDER.DOC file.


SUPPORT

  Support is given to unregistered users during the 60 day trial period, and
  to registered users for 12 months.  This includes direct access to the
  author and/or distributor by mail, phone and fax, plus notification of any
  fixes and new releases.

  Feedback about all our programs is always appreciated.  The first registered
  user to suggest a new function or other improvement will, if the suggestion
  is adopted, receive a free upgrade to the first version that includes that
  function, in addition to any other upgrades they are entitled to.

  Customised versions of our programs can be made to order for specific
  purposes or customers, or whole new applications can be developed as
  required.  Write or phone with an overview of your requirements.
