Definition of 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. Individual programs differ on details -- some request registration
while others require it, some specify a maximum trial period. With
registration, you get anything from the simple right to continue using the
software to an updated program and a printed manual.
Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and retail software, and the
copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific exceptions as stated
below. Shareware authors are accomplished programmers, just like retail
authors, and the programs are of comparable quality. (In both cases, there are
good programs and bad ones!) The main difference is in the method of
distribution. The author specifically grants the right to copy and distribute
the software, either to all and sundry or to a specific group. For example,
some authors require written permission before a commercial disk vendor may
copy their Shareware.
Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You should find
software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether it's retail or
Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting your needs easier, because you
can try before you buy. And because the overhead is lower, prices are lower
also. Shareware has the ultimate money-back guarantee -- if you don't use the
product, you don't pay for it.
ASP Ombudsman Policy
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 or send a
Compuserve message via CompuServe Mail to ASP Ombudsman 70007,3536

Installating Paint Shop Pro
To install Paint Shop Pro, follow these steps:
Before you can use Paint Shop Pro you have to run the setup program from
Windows so it will work properly on your computer. You cannot just copy the
files from the Paint Shop Pro disk to your hard disk. The files on the
distribution disk are packed in a special way to save space. The setup
program unpacks those files and builds them on your working disk.
1. Make Windows' "Program Manager" the active window.
2. From Windows' "Program Manager", select "File", then select "Run". This
will open the "Run" dialog box.
3. Place the copy of Paint Shop Pro in your floppy drive.
Now, the dialog box needs for you to type in the command that will run
the Paint Shop Pro installation program.
* If your floppy disk goes in your Drive "A", type:
A:SETUP
Leave the "Run Minimized" box un-selected, and click the "OK" command
button.
* If your floppy disk goes in your Drive "B", type:
B:SETUP
Leave the "Run Minimized" box un-selected, and click the "OK" command
button.
4. Fill in the required information in the dialog box.
* It will ask you for the "Source Drive and Directory" designation where
your Paint Shop Pro floppy disk is located. (This is the same floppy
drive designation you typed in the previous step before the word
"setup".)
* It will ask you for the hard disk "Destination Drive and Directory"
designation on which you want it to install Paint Shop Pro. It will
suggest a directory named "C:\PSP".
If you want the Paint Shop Pro program files installed on a different
drive or directory, just click the pointer to the right of the
characters you want to change, backspace over the ones you want to
erase, then type in the new designation.
* It will automatically build a Paint Shop Pro icon and add it to
"Program Manager". Accept the "Yes" (already selected by default) if
you do want it to do this. Select "No" if you do not.
5. Paint Shop Pro Setup will unpack the necessary files and place them into
your directory.
6. Paint Shop Pro Setup will notify you when the installation is completed.
Paint Shop Pro is installed and ready to use. Double click the pointer on
the Paint Shop Pro icon and try it out!
