terms and conditions and your agreement to follow them.
STEVE YATES (AUTHOR) GRANTS YOU, THE END USER, A
NONEXCLUSIVE PERSONAL LICENSE TO USE THIS SOFTWARE FOR A
PERIOD UP TO 30 DAYS IN ORDER TO EVALUATE ITS SUITABILITY
TO YOUR NEEDS. AFTER THE EVALUATION PERIOD YOU MUST EITHER
REGISTER WITH THE AUTHOR OR CEASE USING THE SOFTWARE. YOU
MAY USE THE SOFTWARE ON A SINGLE PERSONAL COMPUTER SYSTEM
AND MAKE AS MANY COPIES AS NEEDED FOR BACKUP AND ARCHIVAL.
YOU MAY ALSO DISTRIBUTE THE SOFTWARE, UNMODIFIED AND IN ITS
ENTIRETY, TO OTHERS WHO ARE INTERESTED IN EVALUATING THE
SOFTWARE AS PER THE FOLLOWING DISTRIBUTION LICENSE. YOU
MAY NOT MODIFY, ALTER, TRANSLATE, DISASSEMBLE, DECOMPILE,
OR LEASE THE SOFTWARE OR THIS MANUAL. THIS LICENSE IS

EdIt! is a "Shareware" program (see note below) and is
provided at no charge to the user for evaluation. Feel
free to share this evaluation copy with your friends, but
you may 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 provide incentive for
programmers to continue to develop new products.
If you find this program useful and find that you are
using EdIt! and continue to use EdIt! after a 30-day trial
period, you must register with the author.

The $20 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, i.e., 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 is
being used at another, just as a book cannot be read by two
different persons at the same time. Volume discounts and
site-licensing information is available in the Ordering
Information section on page 2.
You are encouraged to pass an evaluation copy of
EdIt! along to your friends for evaluation. Please
encourage them to register their copy if they find that
they continue to use it. All registered users will receive
a copy of the latest 1.x version of EdIt!, along with the
other registration benefits outlined on page 2.
