Document REGISTER.DOC
HELP! is distributed as Shareware. Anyone is free to try HELP!, but if you
continue to use it, you are expected to register the program. This file
contains information on the following subjects:

NOTES ON SHAREWARE IN GENERAL
Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before they buy
it. If you try a Shareware program and continue using it, you are expected
to register. Individual programs differ on details -- some request
registration while others require it, some specify a maximum trial period.
With registration, you get anything from the simple right to continue to
using the software to an updated program with printed manual.
Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial software, and the
copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific exceptions as
stated below. Shareware authors are accomplished programmers, just like
commercial authors, and the programs are of comparable quality. (in both
cases, there are good programs and bad ones!) The main difference is the
method of distribution. The author specifically grants the right to copy
and distribute the software, either to all and sundry or to a specific
group. Some authors require written permission before a commercial disk
vendor may copy their Shareware.
Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You should
find software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether it's commercial
or Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting your needs easier,
because you can try before you buy. Because the overhead is low, prices
are low. Shareware has the ultimate money back guarantee -- if you don't
like the software, you don't pay for it.
DISCLAIMER
Users of HELP! must accept this disclaimer of warranty:
THIS SOFTWARE AND MANUAL ARE SOLD "AS IS" AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES AS TO
PERFORMANCE OR MERCHANTABILITY. THIS PROGRAM IS SOLD WITHOUT ANY EXPRESSED
OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES WHATSOEVER. BECAUSE OF THE DIVERSITY OF CONDITIONS
AND HARDWARE UNDER WHICH THIS PROGRAM MAY BE USED, NO WARRANTY OF FITNESS
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE IS OFFERED. THE USER IS ADVISED TO TEST THE
PROGRAM THOROUGHLY BEFORE RELYING ON IT. THE USER MUST ASSUME THE ENTIRE
RISK OF USING THE PROGRAM. ANY LIABILITY OF THE SELLER OR MANUFACTURER
WILL BE LIMITED EXCLUSIVELY TO PRODUCT REPLACEMENT OR REFUND OF THE
PURCHASE PRICE.
LICENSE AGREEMENT
HELP! is a "Shareware program" and is provided at no charge to the user for
evaluation. Feel free to share it with your friends, but please do not
give it away altered or as part of another system. The essence of "user-
supported" software is to provide personal computer users with quality
software without high prices, and yet to provide incentive for programmers
to continue to develop new products. If you find this program useful and
find that you are using HELP! after a reasonable trial period, you must
make a registration payment of $30.00 to Taylor Software Tools. The $30.00
registration fee will license one copy for use on any one computer at any
one time. You must treat this software just like a book. An example is
that this software may be used by any number of people and may be freely
moved from one computer location to another, so long as there no
possibility of it begin used at one location while it's begin used at
another locaton. Just as a book cannot be read by two different persons at
the same time.
Commercial users of HELP! must register and pay for their copies of HELP!
within 30 days of the first use or their license is withdrawn. Site-
License arrangements may be made by contacting Taylor Software Tools at
(314)-278-5979.
Anyone distributing HELP! for any kind of remuneration must first contact
Taylor Software Tools at the address above for authorization. This
authorization is automatically granted to distributors recognized by the
(ASP) as adhering to its guidelines for shareware distributors, and such
distributors may begin offering HELP! immediately (However Taylor Software
Tools must still be advised so that the distributor can be kept up-to-date
with the latest version of HELP!.
