This file provides information for Shareware Distributors, Disk Vendors,
SysOps, and Computer Clubs who wish to distribute Unicorn Software's
programs.
Individual and Company Users: Please refer to MANUAL.COM for information.
Program Name & Category:
------------------------
Zpeller-Suggested categories are: Education, Self Improvement & Misc.
Description:
------------
Short: See FILE-ID.DIZ
Long:
An easy and effective way to improve spelling and vocabulary for the
individual student or an entire classroom. Tests students in not only
correct spelling but the word's definition. Tracks words continually
missed to help the student concentrate on those words. Whether the user is
a 4th grader with weekly tests or an out of school adult wanting to improve
those crucial spelling and vocabulary skills; Zpeller is there to help.
The User can set the colours, printer codes, default data drive and data
file name. There are no 'crippled' features or options. The only
difference between the shareware and registered versions is the lack of
'plea' screens on the registered version and the clarity of the Users
conscience.
Hardware Requirements: 330K RAM, IBM graphics/laser printers, mono or
colour monitor, can operate on two floppy or hard disk drives.
Other Requirements: MS-DOS 2.11 or higher.
Registration Information:
-------------------------
Registration price is $20.

Limited Distribution License:
-----------------------------
The Zpeller 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.
o The program - including all related program files 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 Zpeller package.
o No price or other compensation may be charged for the 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 Zpeller package cannot be "rented" or "leased" to others.
o The person receiving a copy of the Zpeller package MUST be made
aware that each disk or copy is ONLY for evaluation, and that Unicorn
Software Limited has not received any royalties or payment for the product.
This requirement can be met by including the complete program package,
which contains any appropriate registration reminders.
o The person receiving a copy of the Zpeller package MUST be made aware
that he or she does not become a registered user until Unicorn Software
Limited has received payment for registration of the software. This
requirement can be met by including the complete Zpeller package, which
contains any appropriate registration reminders.
o Unicorn Software Limited prohibits the distribution of outdated
versions of the Zpeller package, without written permission from Unicorn
Software Limited. If the version you have is over twelve (12) months old,

Update Program:
---------------
Most 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 on our current mailing list, 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 for all 16 programs (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), and a check or money order for $10. (Countries outside of
North America please add an additional $10). Payment in U.S. funds drawn on
a U.S. bank only please.
The Update Program covers all programs in release. For a complete list
see the file UNICORN.COM.
All participants in our Update Program will automatically receive any NEW
programs which we may release while their Update Program is in effect.
The 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 prefer not to use
our Update Program.
