SHAREWARE Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before buying it. If you try a Shareware program and continue using it, you are expected to register. Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial software, and the copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific exceptions as stated below. The Shareware system makes fitting your needs easier, because you can try before you buy. And because the overhead is low, prices are low also. Shareware has the ultimate money-back guarantee -- if you don't use the product, you don't pay for it. Users of QUIKNOTE must accept this disclaimer of warranty: "QUIKNOTE 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 conse- quential, which may result from the use of QUIKNOTE." QUIKNOTE 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 do not give it away altered or as part of another system. 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 find that you are using QUIKNOTE and continue to use QUIKNOTE after a reasonable trial period, you must make a registration payment of $10.00 to Gordon Smith. The $10.00 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 moved from one computer location to another, 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. Commercial users of QUIKNOTE must register and pay for their copies of QUIKNOTE within 30 days of first use or their license is withdrawn. . Anyone distributing QUIKNOTE for any kind of remuneration must first contact Gordon Smith at the address below for authorization. This authorization will be automatically granted to distributors recognized by the ASP as adhering to its guidelines for shareware distributors, and such distributors may begin offering QUIKNOTE immediately (However Gordon Smith must still be advised so that the distributor can be kept up-to-date with the latest version of QUIKNOTE.). You are encouraged to pass a copy of QUIKNOTE along to your friends for evaluation. Please encourage them to register their copy if they find that they can use it. Although the author is not yet a member of ASP, QUIKNOTE is a Shareware program conforming to standards as established by the Association of Shareware Professionals (ASP) located at 325 118th Ave. S.E., Suite 200, Belleview, WA 98005. The author will provide the following support: (1) Telephone support to registered users (2) Support via mail, all letters sent will be answered (3) Electronic mail support via Compuserve (Acct 72567,3416) (preferred method) (4) This is a fully functioning product with no crippling (5) There are no undocumented features (6) The program has been throughly tested. Although this program is produced by a non-member of the Association of Shareware Professionals (ASP), the ASP standards and principals are fully supported and the author will comply with all ASP standards and practices. ASP wants to make sure that the shareware principle works for you. If you are unable to resolve a shareware-related problem with an ASP member by contacting the member directly, ASP may be able to help. The ASP Ombudsman can help you resolve a dispute or problem with an ASP member, but does not provide technical support for members' products. Please write to the ASP Ombudsman at 545 Grover Road, Muskegon, MI 49442 or send a CompuServe message via CompuServe Mail to ASP Ombudsman 70007,3536.
