- Copyright
- ---------
-
- This application is SHAREWARE. This means that it may be copied freely, as
- long as -
-
- • No charge above media and distribution costs is made, and no personal
- profit is made,
- • It is not altered in any way, and the whole application is copied,
- • If you use the software for more than two weeks, you must register for it.
- See the section 'Registering' below.
-
- The copyright remains mine (Chris Whitworth) at all times.
-
- PD Libraries - if you wish to distribute this software, I will be happy to
- let you, provided you make no profit from it. However, I would be grateful if
- you would contact me first (at the address at the end of this file). This is
- so I know who is distributing my software.
-
- Bulletin boards - if you charge your calls at premium rate (eg. 0898/0891
- numbers) YOU MAY NOT DISTRIBUTE THIS SOFTWARE IN ANY FORM. If you charge your
- calls normally, and someone uploads this software, please contact me before
- incorporating it into your catalogue, so I know which version you have.
- (Please note, at present I do not have a modem, so please either phone me or
- write to me)
-
- FTP sites - This application may be freely distributed on ftp sites.
-
- Programmers - if you wish to use this software in any other program, then
- contact me first, including _full_ details of what you want to do with it. If
- it inspires you to write any other program, but you do not actually use any
- of my code, a credit would be nice!

- Registering
- -----------
-
- This application is SHAREWARE. This means that you are entitled to try it
- out free of charge for a period of two weeks. If, after this period, you
- decide you wish to continue using the software, you _must_ register it.
- Registration costs £5 (as a cheque payable to 'Chris Whitworth' - sorry, UK
- sterling only) and entitles you to free upgrades on receipt of a disc with
- your existing (registered) version on it. Registered versions do not have
- the annoying error box which pops up every now and again, either.
- I will send out details of the latest version to anyone who has registered.
- If you decide not to register, you must destroy all copies of the software.
-
- I make no effort to ensure that the latest version is in PD libraries - if
- you want the latest version, then register.
-
- Magazines
- ---------
-
- Something I don't understand is how magazines are getting away with
- distributing shareware on their coverdiscs. The whole idea is that you get to
- try before you buy, right? If you don't like it, you are legally (and
- morally) obliged to destroy all copies of the software. But if you still have
- it lurking on a cover-disc somewhere, how are you meant to do this? This, to
- me, seems to make the time limit on the software somewhat redundant.
- Therefore, this software may not be distributed in any form on a magazine
- cover disc (unless I have given my specific permission to allow this to be
- done)
