OMBUDSMAN STATEMENT
"This program is produced by a member of the Association
of Shareware Professionals (ASP). 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
49442-9427 USA, FAX 616-788-2765 or send a Compuserve
message via CompuServe Mail to ASP Ombudsman 70007,3536"
DISCLAIMER - AGREEMENT
Users of Sorcerer Sixpack must accept this disclaimer of warranty:
"Sorcerer Sixpack 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 Sorcerer Sixpack"
Sorcerer Sixpack is a "shareware program" and is provided at no charge
to you 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 Sorcerer Sixpack and
continue to use Sorcerer Sixpack after a reasonable trial period, you must
make a registration payment (see "SIXPACK.TXT") to Sorcerer Software. The
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. As an example this software
may be used by any number of people and may be freely moved from one
computer location to another, as 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 Sorcerer Sixpack must register and pay for their
copies of Sorcerer Sixpack within 30 days of first use.
Anyone distributing Sorcerer Sixpack for any kind of remuneration must
first contact Sorcerer Software at the address below for authorization.
This authorization will be automatically granted to distributors
recognized by the ASP (Association of Shareware Professionals) as adhering
to its guidelines for shareware distributors, and such distributors
may begin offering Sorcerer Sixpack immediately. However Sorcerer Software
must still be advised so that the distributor can be kept up-to-date with
the latest version of Sorcerer Sixpack.
You are encouraged to pass a copy of Sorcerer Sixpack along to your
friends and colleagues for evaluation. Please encourage them to register
their copy if they find that they like and use it. All registered users
will receive a copy of the latest version of Sorcerer Sixpack

INTRODUCTION
Three of these programs are TSR's--programs that stay in your computer's
memory until you remove them or reboot your computer. These memory
resident programs are all very small and fast, can be loaded into upper
memory blocks on applicable machines, and can be unloaded from memory.
The other three programs are started from the DOS prompt. They are
small, quick and perform a single function.
The philosophy behind the Sorcerer Sixpack was to write a collection of
very small, very fast, DOS utility programs. These were all written 100%
in assembly language in order to accomplish this. The intent is not to
provide 6 programs that everyone will use. Rather, I hope that there
will be one of the six that may be of benefit to each user who explores
the Sixpack.
REGISTRATION
If you find any of these programs helpful and wish to continue using
them, please register (see "ORDER.FRM") with us and we will forward to
you the Sixpack with these benefits:
1. Selection of hot keys for DayTime and Ejector
2. Change LPT (parallel) ports: LPT 1, 2, or 3 in Ejector
3. Hot key blanking for Ssaver
4. Configurable timer for Ssaver
5. Use Ssaver with MDA, monochrome, CGA, EGA, VGA, or SVGA monitors
6. BONUS program: MouSpeed
It does for your mouse what KeySpeed does for your keyboard
7. BONUS program: Print Commander! v 3.5s

Thank you for supporting shareware!
