PassWord Version 0.1
written 1992 (C) by H.P.G FreeWare
This is a little password program. Its size is about 2k.
Because of its size you`ll see its not assumed to protect you against
any professional computer hackers. Its just a tool that can provide
the illegal using of your computer, if e.g. your little sister or your
friend tries to boot up your system.
The use of the program is very simple. The first you have to do is to
create a file called `devs:PassWord.psw`.
This file should contain your PassWord. That can be any word you will be
use.
Then you should copy the PassWord binary to your c: directory.
Then you have to insert the following line early (best is as the first
command) in your s:startup-sequence.
'PassWord'
That`s all.
Now this program will be startet each time your computer boots up.
Then the user will be prompted for the PassWord. After 3 false passwords
the program freezes your computer. That means no other process or task
gets any CPU time and no more free memory is available for any other
program. The coputer stays in this way until next bootup.
Legal Stuff:
This program and all files come with it, also the docfiles, are
released as FREEWARE.
this means:
everybody may use PassWord,
everybody may copy PassWord, if:
1. You copy all included files, see list at the end of the
doc file.
2. No changes are made, this means the program and all
included files must stay in the original form.
Exception: you may archieve it; but in this case you
must also archieve the whole package.
3. If you recompile it, you have to include a notice to
the original author. If you also want to (re)distribute
in any new form you have to send me a copy.
4. You may not sell PassWord.
Execption: you`re allowed to take a small copy fee
which should not extend 5US$.
5. If you want to include PassWord
or one of the included files as a part of a commercial
package, you must have written permission of the
author (address see below).
I take no warranty or garanty for the function of this program.
The whole risk of using PassWord stays only by the user.
Technical:
I used the Manx Aztec C Compiler V 5.2 to write this tool.
The in dead very short code size is a result of using very often
amiga.library calls instead of c.library calls.
If you find this program useful, feel free to use and copy it.
Have fun
