- (c) Copyright 1991-93 Commodore-Amiga, Inc. All Rights Reserved
-
- This archive contains the software installation utility Installer 1.24,
- Installer.doc, a sample installer script (install-test), sample
- installer script project icon (install-test.info), and a free electronic
- Product License Agreement for distribution of Installer.
-
- For USERS OF INSTALLER
- ======================
- A simple "InstallInstaller" shell script with icon is provided.
- This will copy Installer to your SYS:Utilities directory if it does
- not find a newer version of Installer already there.
- NOTE: Installer itself does not have an icon.
-
-
- For APPLICATIONS USING INSTALLER
- ================================
- Commercial applications will probably want to ship Installer with
- their product. For this purpose, a print/sign/send distribution
- license is included in this archive. Shareware and freeware
- applications may also license and include Installer. However,
- Installer is relatively large and it does not make sense to
- include it in dozens of different shareware/freeware archives.
- Instead, we hope that these shareware/freeware applications
- will be able to simply require their user to have Installer installed
- on their system in SYS:Utilities/, and will use SYS:Utilities/Installer
- as the default tool of their Installer script project icon.
-
-
-
- The "Installer" program is in the same drawer as the sample installer script.
- The Installer program itself does not have an icon but is called as the
- installer project script icon's Default Tool. As provided, the icon's
- default tool is just "Installer" and this is correct for an installation
- script which is in the same directory as the Installer program, or for
- any 2.0 or higher installations where Installer is expected to be in
- a path searched by Workbench. If plan to ship only an Installer script
- and icon, and wish it to also work under 1.3, then change the default
- tool to SYS:Utilities/Installer (1.3 Workbench does not search paths).
-
- Installer (version 1.24) and the install script project icon
- may be distributed by developers who have a Workbench License and
- an Installer Amendment, and also by developers who print out, complete,
- sign, and submit the included Installer.License agreement.
-
- This version of Installer is 1.3 compatible. It does not require 2.0
- but therefore also does not have language localization.
-
- The complete and unmodified Installer Development archive, as provided
- by Commodore, may be freely redistributed via any means which
- preserves its copyrights. The archive may not be sold for profit.
