The ProLite package is defined as containing all the material
listed in the PACKING.LST text file. If any files listed in the
PACKING.LST text file, or the PACKING.LST file itself, are
missing, then the package is not complete and distribution is
forbidden. Please contact us to obtain a complete package
suitable for distribution.

and documentation files - CANNOT be modified in any way
and must be distributed as a complete package, without
exception. The PACKING.LST text file contains a list of
all files that are part of the ProLite package.
o No price or other compensation may be charged for the
ProLite package. A distribution cost may be charged for
the cost of the diskette, shipping and handling, as long
as the total (per disk) does not exceed US$8.00 in the
U.S. and Canada, or US$12.00 internationally.
o The ProLite package CANNOT be sold as part of some other
inclusive package. Nor can it be included in any
commercial software packaging offer, without a written
agreement from Falk Data Systems. For information on
combining the ProLite package with related programs to
form a "disk-set", please refer to the information below

The following additional information and restrictions are

Vendors who are ASP Associate Members in good standing are hereby
given permission to distribute the ProLite package in accordance
with the Distribution Restrictions listed above. ASP Associate
Members (often called "ASP Approved Vendors") in good standing do
not need to request permission to distribute this package.
This permission is in effect until or unless we notify you
otherwise, in writing.
If your address, as listed in the ASP Vendor Catalog is
incorrect, please send us your current address so we can ensure
that you always have the most current version (mailed in a sealed
envelope). ASP Associate Members in good standing will receive
free upgrades for all shareware products developed and

In order for us to ensure that only current versions are
distributed, we require that you request permission from us (Falk
Data Systems) to distribute any of our products.
You may not list any of our products in advertisements, catalogs,
or other literature which describes our products as "FREE
SOFTWARE". Shareware is "Try-Before-You-Buy" software, it is not
free.

of-the-Month, or as part of a subscription or monthly service,
then the following restrictions apply:
Vendor/Distributor Information Page 8 of 11
- ProLite, Version 1.00 - Vendor.DOC -
ASP Associate (Disk Vendor) Members in good standing are hereby
given permission to distribute the ProLite package under the
Disk-of-the-Month style of distribution.
Others (non-ASP Members) must contact us in advance to ensure
that you have the most current version of the software.
You cannot use a Disk-of-the-Month distribution to use up your
inventory of old (out of date) disks. Only current versions may
be shipped as Disk-of-the-Month disks. This version was released
in November, 1990.
CD-ROM and Other Collections:
-----------------------------
If you wish to add any of our programs to a CD-ROM or other
collection, please check the release date of the version you
have. If the version is over six (6) months old then please
contact us to ensure that you have the most current version.
This version was released in November, 1990.

ProLite package as part of a collection (such as PsL's MegaDisk
set, or a CD-ROM package) must obtain permission from Falk Data

Vendor Update Program:
----------------------
Most non-ASP vendors have standard procedures for acquiring new
files. They get them from other vendors, BBSs, etc. Most
authors cannot afford to mail disks to hundreds (perhaps
thousands) of vendors. However, some vendors prefer to obtain
programs directly from the authors. If you would like to obtain
programs directly from us, automatically, then please help us to
cover the cost.
If you are NOT an ASP Approved Vendor (in good standing), but you
would still like to receive automatic updates directly from us,
then please take advantage of our Vendor Update Program. Under
this program you can receive updates for an entire year for only
$10 per program (this helps to offset our costs).
To receive updates, simply send us a letter with your name,
company name, mailing address, the name of the person we should
contact (such as your disk librarian), the program (or programs)
for which you would like to receive updates, and a check or money
order for $10 for each program (Countries outside of North
America please add an additional $10 per program). Payment in
U.S. funds drawn on a U.S. bank only please.
The Vendor Update Program is available for the following products
(as of November, 1990):
The Programmer's Productivity Pack
The Programmer's Productivity Pack Lite
Easy Format: The Fun Floppy Disk Formatter
Peruse: An ASCII and Binary File Reader
All vendors participating in our Vendor Update Program will
automatically receive any NEW programs which we may release while
their Vendor Update Program is in effect.
NOTE: ASP Associate Members automatically receive free updates
and do not need to apply for the Vendor Update Program.
This is another advantage to being an ASP Associate Member.
The Vendor Update Program is only intended to help us cover our
expenses in those cases where a vendor desires to obtain the
program directly from us. If you have other standard ways to
obtain programs, then you may not want to use our Vendor Update
Program.
