World Wide Web for your Atari! ============================== This package basically consists of three parts. * The HTML parser, by Alexander Clauss (Germany). This will be considered the main program by most people. * STiK, by Steve Adam (Australia). This actually does the low-level networking stuff to the Internet. * HTML.OVL, by Tim Newsome (USA). This is the missing link between the parser and STiK. (I know the countries aren't important, but I just like the idea of global development. :-)) Legal Stuff ----------- All the files in this package are freeware. That means you may spread it as much as you want, but you CAN'T charge money for it. The only money you may ask is the amount needed for distribution. To distribute these files in any other way, including magazine cover disks, CD-ROM collections, etc., you'll have to contact the respective authors first. You use these programs at your own risk. In the tests quite a few bugs have been discovered, but none of these trashed hard drives etc. You can feel reasonably safe using these programs, but if something does go wrong, it's your fault. Optional Registering -------------------- All programs in this package are freeware, but it is suggested that you send a contribution to the authors for all the time and effort they have put into the programs, to thank them and show your appreciation. What you get when you register/contribute: * MasterDisk with latest versions on * Support and helping you get on-line, feedback from authors * Free update service (as long as the fee doesn't rise or the programs go commercial) * The warm feeling inside that you are helping keep the Atari market alive!

It is suggested that you contribute a minimum of 15 Pounds Sterling for the whole package. (Please add 1 Pound to this if registering from outside the UK).
