- ===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================
-
- Thank you for your interest in WinFlash. You will find this program to
- be extremely helpful in memorizing coursework or professional material.
- The multi-media capabilities of v5.0 allow for an almost unlimited range
- of study materials. Drawings, pictures, sounds, music, video and text
- can all be combined to cover nearly any learning requirement.
-
- The WYSIWYG editor makes the creation of your card decks quick and easy.
- It includes built-in browsing and viewing/listening capability for most
- popular graphic, audio and video file formats. The printing capabilities
- added to this version will allow you to take your decks with you when you
- can't study at your computer or, if you prefer, print them in tabular
- format.
-
- I've found in my own use of WinFlash that the preparation of the
- flashcards is, in itself, a significant aid in learning the material. The
- expanded capabilities of the new version make this preparation a fun and
- interesting undertaking. I hope you will enjoy using my program.

-
- A registered user of any Open Window program is entitled to a full
- refund of their registration fee if they are not satisfied with the
- program they have registered. Send a letter to Open Window requesting a
- refund (we'd like to hear why, but that's not a requirement) and stating
- that you will discontinue all use of the program upon receipt of your
- refund. It's as simple as that - no questions asked.
-
- This guarantee is valid only for products purchased directly from Open
- Window and does not apply to Open Window products purchased through
- third-party distribution channels. In these cases, the third party's
- warrantee is in force and they should be contacted with regard to
- refunds or exchanges.

-
- DISCLAIMER AND LICENSE AGREEMENT

- Users of WinFlash accept this disclaimer of warranty:
-
- WinFlash is supplied as is. The author disclaims all warranties,
- expressed or implied, including, without limitation, the warranties of
- merchantability and of fitness for any purpose. The author assumes no
- liability for damages, direct or consequential, which may result from
- the use of WinFlash.
-
- The attached VENDINFO data record is hereby incorporated by reference.
- Any distribution satisfying all the distribution requirements expressed
- in that data record is hereby authorized.
-
- WinFlash is a "shareware program" and is provided at no charge to the
- user for evaluation. Feel free to share it with your friends, but please
- give them the original FLASH_50.ZIP (FLASH.ZIP on CompuServe or Open
- Window's web site) file so that they will have all of the necessary
- support files.
-
- The essence of "user-supported" software is to provide personal computer
- users with quality software without high prices, and yet to provide
- incentive for programmers to continue to develop new products. If you
- find this program useful and wish to continue to use WinFlash after the
- trial period (30 days or 30 uses, whichever is LONGER), you must make a
- registration payment of $24.95 (plus S&H) to Open Window.
-
- The $24.95 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.
- An example is that this software may be used by any number of people and
- may be freely installed on multiple computers, so long as there is no
- possibility of it being used at one location while it's being used at
- another - just as a book cannot be read by two different persons at the
- same time.
-
- While distribution of the intact shareware version is encouraged, users
- are prohibited from distributing registered copies of the software. In
- addition, users may not modify the program's executable file in any way.
-
- Multiple-copy discounts may be obtained by contacting Open Window.
-
- Anyone distributing WinFlash for a fee of any kind must read the
- conditions in the VENDOR.TXT file distributed with this application.
-

-
- 1. The license allows the use of the software on only a single computer
- or workstation which is not used as a server.
-
- 2. The licensing of WINFLASH does not entitle the user to any other uses
- of LZW technology.
