The MEGAHOST 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.
The MEGAHOST package - 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 MEGAHOST package.
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 MEGAHOST
package. 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 MEGAHOST 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 ASCII Computer Enterprises.
ASP Approved Vendors who wish to distribute the MEGAHOST package
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
MEGAHOST package as part of a collection (such as PsL's MegaDisk
set, or a CD-ROM package) must obtain permission from ASCII Computer
Enterprises prior to beginning such a distribution.
If you wish to add any of our programs to a CD-ROM or other collection,
