LICENCE
(C) Copyright 1989, 1994 by Lanius Corporation. All rights
reserved.
COMMERCIAL DISTRIBUTION AND/OR USE PROHIBITED WITHOUT WRITTEN
CONSENT FROM LANIUS CORPORATION.
Noncommercial distribution and/or use is permitted under the
following terms:
1) You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Squish
documentation and executable code as you receive it, in any
medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately
publish on each copy a valid copyright notice "Copyright
1989, 1994 by Lanius Corporation"; keep intact the notices
on all files that refer to this Licence Agreement and to the
absence of any warranty; PROVIDE UNMODIFIED COPIES OF THE
DOCUMENTATION AS PROVIDED WITH THE PROGRAM; and give any
other recipients of the Squish program a copy of this
Licence Agreement along with the program. You may charge a
distribution fee for the physical act of transferring a
copy, but no more than is necessary to recover your actual
costs incurred in the transfer.
2) Mere aggregation of another unrelated program with this
program and documentation (or derivative works) on a volume
of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other
program under the scope of these terms.
3) You may not copy, sublicense, distribute or transfer Squish
and its associated documentation except as expressly
provided under this Licence Agreement. Any attempt
otherwise to copy, sublicense, distribute or transfer Squish
is void and your rights to use the program under this
Licence agreement shall be automatically terminated.
However, parties who have received computer software
programs from you with this Licence Agreement will not have
their licences terminated so long as such parties remain in
full compliance, and notify Lanius Corporation of their
intention to comply with this Agreement.
4) You may not incorporate all or part of Squish (including
related utilities) into a program which is not completely
free for all users. If you wish to distribute Squish in
this manner, you must obtain written permission from Lanius
Corporation.
5) The privileges granted above apply only to noncommercial
users of the Squish software.
You are a NONCOMMERCIAL user only if you are running Squish
as a private individual with no "sponsors", "backers", and
only if your BBS is not making (or helping to make) a
profit.
You are a COMMERCIAL user if you make a profit from running
your BBS.
You are also a COMMERCIAL user if your BBS is being run by
(or for) a corporation, government, company, foundation, or
any other organization.
You are also a COMMERCIAL user if your system is used to
advertise for such a commercial organization for the
purposes of making a profit.
This licence only governs NONCOMMERCIAL users. If you are a
COMMERCIAL user, you are not licensed to use or distribute
this software without the prior written consent of Lanius
Corporation. If you wish to run Squish as a commercial
user, please see the section of the program documentation
entitled "Ordering Information".
6) This licence may be revoked by Lanius Corporation without
prior notice.
