PINOCLE GAMES VENDOR INFORMATION
** SPECIAL NOTICE 2/22/93 ** Please distribute PINOCL11.EXE in
place of the originally distributed PINOCL.EXE. The program in
PINOCL11.EXE now offers two ways to end the game, making it much
more appealing and correct. Failure to provide this originally
was a gross oversight on my part.
PINOCLE GAMES is a "shareware program" and is provided at no
charge to the user for evaluation. The PINOCLE GAMES system
includes six files all beginning with the letters 'pin' offered
to disk vendors for distribution as the self-extracting file
PINOCL11.EXE. ( A distribution license has been obtained from
PKWARE for this purpose.) If a person finds that they continue to
use PINOCLE GAMES after a reasonable trial period, they must make
a registration payment of $15 to the author, Michael G. Bruckner,
at the address below.
Michael G. Bruckner
Pinocle Games
7936 Saddle Run
Powell, OH 43065
When a person registers, I, Mike Bruckner, will send them (1) a
code word ( a "command line parameter" ) that will prevent the ad
at the end of the game from appearing, (2) a new copy of PINOCLE
GAMES, (3) a REGISTERED bonus utility - REMI, a reminder program,
and (4) I will also offer some guarantees as stated in the USER
SUPPORT section below.
Commercial users of PINOCLE GAMES must register and pay for their
copies of PINOCLE GAMES within 30 days of first use or their
license is withdrawn. Site-License arrangements may be made by
contacting Michael G. Bruckner at the above address.
Anyone distributing PINOCLE GAMES for any kind of remuneration
must first contact Michael G. Bruckner at the above address 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 PINOCLE GAMES immediately ( However Michael G.
Bruckner must still be advised so that the distributor can be
kept up-to-date with the latest version of PINOCLE GAMES ).
USER SUPPORT
PINOCLE GAMES has been thoroughly tested by the author and, to
his knowledge, is not harmful to other files or hardware if used
properly. The author may be contacted by mail (at the address

also read the DISCLAIMER - AGREEMENT section below.
The author, Michael G. Bruckner, is 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

does not provide technical support for members' products. Please
