- This file provides information for Shareware Distributors, Disk Vendors and
- Computer Clubs who wish to distribute any or all of the ■■■■-MAN series of
- shareware programs.
-
- The general group of shareware programs, distributed by Micrometric, is
- referred to by the name ■■■■-MAN. This name may also be used in reference to a
- specific program in that group.
-
- For complete program information and sample program descriptions, which you may
- use to describe these products, please refer to the SUMMARY.DOC text file.
-
- In addition, the text file DISK#.DOC contains the names of all shareware
- distributors who have notified Micrometric that they will be distributing ■■■■-
- MAN programs AND have sent us their identification numbers for those disks. If
- you are currently distributing our programs, please check this file for your
- disk numbers; if you plan on distributing any or all of these programs, please
- notify us of your assigned disk numbers and we will add them to the file. We
- would also appreciate being placed on your mailing list and receiving your
- catalog.
-
- BBS SYSOPs: Please refer to the SYSOP.DOC text file for information.
-
- Individuals who wish to distribute any of the ■■■■-MAN series of shareware
- programs to friends or associates may do so in accordance with the restrictions
- outlined in the README file for each program.
-
- This file does not need to, nor should it, be distributed with any of the
- ■■■■-MAN series of shareware programs.

- Distribution Requirements
- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
-
- Computer Clubs and User Groups wishing to add any of the ■■■■-MAN series of
- shareware programs to their disk library may do so in accordance with the
- Distribution Restrictions listed below.
-
- If you would like your Computer Club or User Group to be placed on our mailing
- list for future upgrades to any of our products, please contact us for complete
- details. Our address, phone numbers, and CompuServe User ID number is listed
- in SUMMARY.DOC.
-
- Limited Distribution License:
- ─────────────────────────────
-
- As the exclusive copyright holder for ■■■■-MAN series of shareware programs,
- Micrometric authorizes distribution only in accordance with the following
- restrictions.
-
- ASP Approved Vendors in good standing are hereby given permission to distribute
- the ■■■■-MAN series of shareware programs. Non-ASP member vendors must request
- permission prior to distributing this package.
-
- The ■■■■-MAN series of shareware programs is defined as containing all the
- systems listed in the SUMMARY.DOC text file. Any or all systems may be
- distributed by a vendor. Additionally, they may be distributed separately -
- they do not need to be distributed as a group. However, it is our
- recommendation that you may want to package DRIV-MAN, ENVI-MAN, MENU-MAN, and
- PATH-MAN, since they all deal with batch files. Additionally, we suggest
- distributing the LASR-MAN SUPPLEMENTAL FILES with the LASR-MAN program. These
- are recommendations only, and not requirements.
-
- Each ■■■■-MAN shareware program archive - including all its related program
- files and documentation files - CANNOT be modified in any way and must be
- distributed as a complete package, without exception. Each program has been
- archived using PKZIP, Version 2, with the Authenticity Verification feature.
- The ■■■■-MAN.WHO text file in each archive contains a list of all files that
- are part of that ■■■■-MAN program archive.
-
- These programs, ■■■■@vvv - where vvv is the version number, replace previously
- released versions of the same program, with lower version numbers. The
- supplemental files replace previously released versions with the same name.
-
- The archives provided for Disk Vendors are in the form of self-extracting
- files. At the Disk Vendor's discretion, the self-extracting feature may be
- removed, thereby decreasing each file's size by approximately 13K. This may be
- done by running the program ZIP2EXE with the -e switch. This DOES NOT
- constitute permission to alter the archive in any other way.
-
- Small additions to the package, such as the introductory or installation batch
- files used by many shareware disk vendors, are acceptable.
-
- No price or other compensation may be charged for the ■■■■-MAN series of
- shareware programs. A distribution fee 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.
-
- Disk Sets & CD-ROMs:
- ────────────────────
-
- The ■■■■-MAN series of shareware programs 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 Micrometric.
-
- ASP Approved Vendors who wish to distribute the ■■■■-MAN series of shareware
- programs as part of a collection (such as PsL's MegaDisk set, or a CD-ROM
- package) may do so provided that all the other restrictions are met.
-
- Vendors (non-ASP Vendor Members) who wish to distribute the ■■■■-MAN series of
- shareware programs as part of a collection (such as PsL's MegaDisk set, or a
- CD-ROM package) must obtain permission from Micrometric prior to beginning such
- a distribution.
-
- 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 twelve
- (12) months old then please contact us to ensure that you have the most current
- version.
-
- Disk-of-the-Month (or Subscription) Distribution:
- ─────────────────────────────────────────────────
-
- If you would like to distribute the ■■■■-MAN series of shareware programs as a
- Disk-of-the-Month, or as part of a subscription or monthly service, then the
- following restrictions apply:
-
- ASP Associate (Disk Vendor) Members in good standing are hereby given
- permission to distribute the ■■■■-MAN series of shareware programs 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.
-
- The PRINTED USER MANUAL may not be reproduced in whole or in part, using any
- means, without the written permission of Micrometric. In other words, the
- disk-based documentation may not be distributed in PRINTED (hardcopy) form.
-
- The ■■■■-MAN series of shareware programs cannot be "rented" or "leased" to
- others.
-
- 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.
-
- Micrometric prohibits the distribution of outdated versions of the ■■■■-MAN
- series of shareware programs, without written permission from Micrometric. If
- the version you have is over twelve (12) months old, please contact us to
- ensure that you have the most current version.
-
- Licensee shall not use, copy, rent, lease, sell, modify, decompile,
- disassemble, otherwise reverse engineer, or transfer the licensed program
- except as provided in this agreement. Any such unauthorized use shall result
- in immediate and automatic termination of this license.
-
- U.S. Government Information: Use, duplication, or disclosure by the U.S.
- Government of the computer software and documentation in this package shall be
- subject to the restricted rights applicable to commercial computer software as
- set forth in subdivision (b)(3)(ii) of the Rights in Technical Data and
- Computer Software clause at 252.227-7013 (DFARS 52.227-7013). The
- Contractor/manufacturer is Micrometric, 98 Dade Avenue, Sarasota, Florida,
- 34232-1609.
-
- All rights not expressly granted here are reserved to Micrometric.
