Licensing
~~~~~~~~~
Ued is a shareware editor. This means that you only pay for it if you
decide to continue using it. If you don't think that it is worth the
asking price, delete the program, or better yet give it to someone who
might find it useful. However if you do decide to keep Ued after a 2
week trial period, please send $20 (see REGISTRATION FORM on next
page) to:
Useful Software
340 Dale Crescent
Waterloo, Ontario
Canada, N2J 3Y3
The shareware fee pays for unlimited use of Ued by a single person.
You are allowed (and encouraged) to give away copies of Ued with the
understanding that each person receiving a copy is under the same
obligation as you are to send in the shareware fee if they decide to
keep it. You can upload Ued to other computer systems, either free or
commercial, as long as this archive remains intact, with the copyright
and shareware notices unchanged.
Useful Editor can be installed on LANS. In such situations I ask only
that the LAN Administrator estimate the maximum number of people that
will be making "simultaneous" use of Ued and pay the shareware fee
based on that estimate. I do not expect that the limit be closely
monitored or enforced (I appreciate how much trouble that would be),
but I do expect that the estimate will be revised (and additional fees
paid) should a substantial increase in the number of nodes on the LAN
and Ued usage occur.
No guarantee is made as to the functionality of this software; however
it has been tested quite thoroughly by a large number of people. If
it doesn't do what you want, don't keep it and send no money.
Please support the shareware concept. Shareware means useful programs
at a fraction of the cost you might pay for them commercially. You
can try-before-you-buy, and you are not subjected to copy protection
or other atrocities that many software vendors inflict on their
customers. Software updates can also be distributed much faster than
is possible through normal channels.
Any questions, suggestions, or bug reports, can be mailed to the above
address, or send electronic mail to:

Enjoy,
