This file provides information for Shareware Distributors, Disk Vendors and
Computer Clubs who wish to distribute any or all of the ■■■■-MAN series of
shareware programs.
The general group of shareware programs, distributed by Micrometric, is
referred to by the name ■■■■-MAN. This name may also be used in reference to a
specific program in that group.
For complete program information and sample program descriptions, which you may
use to describe these products, please refer to the SUMMARY.DOC text file.
In addition, the text file DISK#.DOC contains the names of all shareware
distributors who have notified Micrometric that they will be distributing ■■■■-
MAN programs AND have sent us their identification numbers for those disks. If
you are currently distributing our programs, please check this file for your
disk numbers; if you plan on distributing any or all of these programs, please
notify us of your assigned disk numbers and we will add them to the file. We
would also appreciate being placed on your mailing list and receiving your
catalog.
BBS SYSOPs: Please refer to the SYSOP.DOC text file for information.
Individuals who wish to distribute any of the ■■■■-MAN series of shareware
programs to friends or associates may do so in accordance with the restrictions
outlined in the README file for each program.
This file does not need to, nor should it, be distributed with any of the
■■■■-MAN series of shareware programs.

Distribution Requirements
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Computer Clubs and User Groups wishing to add any of the ■■■■-MAN series of
shareware programs to their disk library may do so in accordance with the
Distribution Restrictions listed below.
If you would like your Computer Club or User Group to be placed on our mailing
list for future upgrades to any of our products, please contact us for complete
details. Our address, phone numbers, and CompuServe User ID number is listed
in SUMMARY.DOC.
Limited Distribution License:
─────────────────────────────
As the exclusive copyright holder for ■■■■-MAN series of shareware programs,
Micrometric authorizes distribution only in accordance with the following
restrictions.
ASP Approved Vendors in good standing are hereby given permission to distribute
the ■■■■-MAN series of shareware programs. Non-ASP member vendors must request
permission prior to distributing this package.
The ■■■■-MAN series of shareware programs is defined as containing all the
systems listed in the SUMMARY.DOC text file. Any or all systems may be
distributed by a vendor. Additionally, they may be distributed separately -
they do not need to be distributed as a group. However, it is our
recommendation that you may want to package DRIV-MAN, ENVI-MAN, MENU-MAN, and
PATH-MAN, since they all deal with batch files. Additionally, we suggest
distributing the LASR-MAN SUPPLEMENTAL FILES with the LASR-MAN program. These
are recommendations only, and not requirements.
Each ■■■■-MAN shareware program archive - including all its related program
files and documentation files - CANNOT be modified in any way and must be
distributed as a complete package, without exception. Each program has been
archived using PKZIP, Version 2, with the Authenticity Verification feature.
The ■■■■-MAN.WHO text file in each archive contains a list of all files that
are part of that ■■■■-MAN program archive.
These programs, ■■■■@vvv - where vvv is the version number, replace previously
released versions of the same program, with lower version numbers. The
supplemental files replace previously released versions with the same name.
The archives provided for Disk Vendors are in the form of self-extracting
files. At the Disk Vendor's discretion, the self-extracting feature may be
removed, thereby decreasing each file's size by approximately 13K. This may be
done by running the program ZIP2EXE with the -e switch. This DOES NOT
constitute permission to alter the archive in any other way.
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 ■■■■-MAN series of
shareware programs. 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 ■■■■-MAN series of shareware programs 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 Micrometric.
ASP Approved Vendors who wish to distribute the ■■■■-MAN series of shareware
programs 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 ■■■■-MAN series of
shareware programs as part of a collection (such as PsL's MegaDisk set, or a
CD-ROM package) must obtain permission from Micrometric 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.
Disk-of-the-Month (or Subscription) Distribution:
─────────────────────────────────────────────────
If you would like to distribute the ■■■■-MAN series of shareware programs as a
Disk-of-the-Month, or as part of a subscription or monthly service, then the
following restrictions apply:
ASP Associate (Disk Vendor) Members in good standing are hereby given
permission to distribute the ■■■■-MAN series of shareware programs under the
Disk-of-the-Month style of distribution.
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 MANUAL may not be reproduced in whole or in part, using any
means, without the written permission of Micrometric. In other words, the
disk-based documentation may not be distributed in PRINTED (hardcopy) form.
The ■■■■-MAN series of shareware programs 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.
Micrometric prohibits the distribution of outdated versions of the ■■■■-MAN
series of shareware programs, without written permission from Micrometric. If
the version you have is over twelve (12) months old, please contact us to
ensure that you have the most current version.
Licensee shall not use, copy, rent, lease, sell, modify, decompile,
disassemble, otherwise reverse engineer, or transfer the licensed program
except as provided in this agreement. Any such unauthorized use shall result
in immediate and automatic termination of this license.
U.S. Government Information: Use, duplication, or disclosure by the U.S.
Government of the computer software and documentation in this package shall be
subject to the restricted rights applicable to commercial computer software as
set forth in subdivision (b)(3)(ii) of the Rights in Technical Data and
Computer Software clause at 252.227-7013 (DFARS 52.227-7013). The
Contractor/manufacturer is Micrometric, 98 Dade Avenue, Sarasota, Florida,
34232-1609.
All rights not expressly granted here are reserved to Micrometric.
Thank you in advance for your support. May we both prosper!
