The Home Sales System package is defined as containing all the material listed
in the PACKING.LST text file. If any files listed in the PACKING.LST text
file, or the PACKING.LST file itself, are missing, then the package is not
complete and distribution is forbidden. Please contact us to obtain a complete
package suitable for distribution.
The Home Sales System package - including all related program files and
documentation files - CANNOT be modified in any way and must be distributed as
a complete package, without exception. The PACKING.LST text file contains a
list of all files that are part of the Home Sales System package.
Small additions to the package, such as the introductory or installation batch
files used by many shareware disk vendors, are acceptable.
No price or other compensation may be charged for the Home Sales System
package. A distribution fee may be charged for the cost of the diskette,
shipping and handling, as long as the total (per disk) does not exceed US $8.00
in the U.S. and Canada, or US $12.00 internationally.
Disk Sets & CD-ROMs:
--------------------
The Home Sales System package CANNOT be sold as part of some other inclusive
package. Nor can it be included in any commercial software packaging
offer, without a written agreement from Grumpyware.
ASP Approved Vendors who wish to distribute the Home Sales System package as
part of a collection (such as PsL's MegaDisk set, or a CD-ROM package) may do
so provided that all the other restrictions are met.
Vendors (non-ASP Vendor Members) who wish to distribute the Home Sales System
package as part of a collection (such as PsL's MegaDisk set, or a CD-ROM
package) must obtain permission from Grumpyware prior to beginning such a
distribution.
If you wish to add any of our programs to a CD-ROM or other collection, please
check the release date of the version you have. If the version is over twelve
(12) months old then please contact us to ensure that you have the most current
version. This version was released in February, 1993.

-------------------------------------------------
If you would like to distribute the Home Sales System package as a Disk-of-
the-Month, or as part of a subscription or monthly service, then the following
restrictions apply:

permission to distribute the Home Sales System package under the Disk-of-
the-Month style of distribution.

- Home Sales System, Version 3.21 - VENDOR.DOC -
Others (non-ASP Members) must contact us in advance to ensure that you have the
most current version of the software.
You cannot use a Disk-of-the-Month distribution to use up your inventory of old
(out of date) disks. Only current versions may be shipped as Disk-of-the-Month
disks.
The PRINTED User's Guide may not be reproduced in whole or in part, using any
means, without the written permission of Grumpyware. In other words, the
disk-based documentation may not be distributed in PRINTED (hardcopy) form.
The Home Sales System package cannot be "rented" or "leased" to others.
You may not list any of our products in advertisements, catalogs, or other
literature which describes our products as "FREE SOFTWARE". Shareware is
"Try-Before-You-Buy" software, it is not free.
Grumpyware prohibits the distribution of outdated versions of the Home Sales
System package, without written permission from Grumpyware. If the version you
have is over twelve (12) months old, please contact us to ensure that you have
the most current version. This version was released in Febuary, 1993.
Licensee shall not use, copy, rent, lease, sell, modify, decompile,

in immediate and automatic termination of this license.

Vendor Update Program:
----------------------
Most non-ASP vendors have standard procedures for acquiring new files. They get
them from other vendors, BBSs, etc. Most authors cannot afford to mail disks
to hundreds (perhaps thousands) of vendors. However, some vendors prefer to
obtain programs directly from the authors. If you would like to obtain
programs directly from us, automatically, then please help us to cover the
cost.
If you are NOT an ASP Approved Vendor (in good standing), but you would still
like to receive automatic updates directly from us, then please take advantage
of our Vendor Update Program. Under this program you can receive updates for
an entire year for only $10 per program (this helps to offset our costs).
To receive updates, simply send us a letter with your name, company name,
mailing address, the name of the person we should contact (such as your disk
librarian), the program (or programs) for which you would like to receive
updates, and a check or money order for $10 for each program (Countries outside
of North America please add an additional $10 per program). Payment in U.S.
funds drawn on a U.S. bank only please.
The Vendor Update Program is available for the following products (as of
February, 1993):
The Home Sales System
All vendors participating in our Vendor Update Program will automatically
receive any NEW programs which we may release while their Vendor Update Program
is in effect.
NOTE: ASP Associate Members automatically receive free updates and do not
need to apply for the Vendor Update Program. This is yet another
advantage to being an ASP Associate Member.
The Vendor Update Program is only intended to help us cover our expenses in
those cases where a vendor desires to obtain the program directly from us. If
you have other standard ways to obtain programs, then you may prefer not to use
our Vendor Update Program.
