1. Installation
---------------
List of supplied files:
- SHAREMAN.EXE executable program for Windows 3.1
- SHAREMAN.HLP online help
- LHA.EXE LHA 2.13 (copyright by Yoshi)
- LHA.DOC documentation for LHA

First the archive has to be decompressed. It is a PKZip archive. Then copy
BWCC.DLL into your Windows system directory (usually C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\),
but only if you do not have a newer or same version already.
The last five files are not required for using the ShareMan.
2. What can the ShareMan do for me?
-----------------------------------
The ShareMan is a Windows utility for software distribution; LHA and crypto
interface can also be used generally. Encryption and decryption of text and
files, inserting passwords, user IDs and serial numbers with
authentification digit in the final state of program development as well as
compressing and copying files for distribution are the first tasks the
ShareMan will do for you. For shipment to a registered customer the
ShareMan offers writing serial number, customer's name and company into the
program, calculating and writing a user ID and storing customer data in an
address file, with each option to be turned on or off separately. All
settings can be stored in parameter files for easy retrieval. The ID and
crypto algorithms are included as C source code and may be used freely.
3. Features
-----------
- automatisation of your distribution tasks by parameter files

files by Cesar or shift register

- context-sensitive online help
4. Legal information
--------------------
This is an unregistered version of the ShareMan. The only drawback in
comparison to the registered version is a reminder screen upon program
start. Thus usability is only slightly reduced.
This program and its accompanying documentation are Shareware. The
Shareware principle states that you may use the product for a limited time
or to a limited extent freely, on violation of these limits, however,
either erase the product completely from your system or convert it into the
registered version by paying the registration fee, then being subject to
normal copyright rules without the limitations mentioned. In the case of
the ShareMan the limitation is that you must not use the unregistered
version for more than 30 days. Remember: Trust is the foundation of the
Shareware principle!
All users of the unregistered version of the ShareMan are granted a limited
license to copy the product only for the trial use by themselves or others,
provided that the ShareMan is copied in its full and unmodified form. The
copy must include all files necessary to permit full operation of the
program. It must also include this documentation. Use of unregistered
copies of the ShareMan by any person in connection with a business,
corporation, educational institution, or government agency is forbidden.
Such users must register this product. By using the unregistered version of
the ShareMan you acknowledge that you have read and understood this limited
license and agree to be bound by its terms and conditions. The registered
version must not be distributed.
The two included C files may be used freely.
