        ABOUT SHAREWARE...

        Shareware  (also  known  as user  supported  software  and other
        names)  is a concept not understood  by everyone. The authors of
        Shareware  retain all rights to the software under the copyright
        laws while still allowing free distribution. This gives the user
        the  chance  to freely obtain and try  out software to see if it
        fits  his  needs. Shareware should  not  be confused with Public
        Domain  software  even though they  are  often obtained from the
        same sources.

        If  you  continue to use Shareware  after trying it out, you are
        expected  to  register  your  use  with  the  author  and  pay a
        registration  fee. What you get in return depends on the author,
        but  may  include  a  printed  manual,  free  updates, telephone
        support,  etc.  Only by paying for  the Shareware you use do you
        enable  the Shareware author to continue to support his software
        and   create  new  programs.   Considering  that  the  Shareware
        registration  fees are almost always  far less than the purchase
        price  of  comparable  commercial  software  it's  obvious  that
        Shareware is a good deal for everyone.

        There  are  real advantages to you  in the Shareware system. You
        get  to try out software to make sure it is compatible with your
        hardware  and  that it fits your  needs before you "buy" it with
        your  registration. The author saves the expense of advertising,
        packaging  and  distribution and passes  the  savings on to you.
        Plus,  most  Shareware  authors are  much  more  accessible than
        commercial   software   sources  so   that  your  questions  and
        suggestions are much more likely to be responded to.

        Thank you for your support.
