A short program description can be found in FILE_ID.DIZ, a longer description in *.DES. Information on running the DEMO/TUTORIAL file and new features list are in READ*.ME. Pricing information is in REGISTER.DOC 2COL and JETCOL vendor policy: The shareware industry is going through a transition regarding payment of royalties for shareware. Since old versions of shareware programs do tend to "hang around" for long periods, I am adopting a flexible policy to try and remain current throughout this period. My basic policy regarding royalties is this: I want equal treatment with other authors. If you are a catalog or rack vendor or CD-ROM compiler and you are paying ANY other author a royalty for distributing their shareware, I require a royalty equal to the highest royalty you pay for a given distribution medium but not to exceed 8 cents per program copy distributed. In other words if the highest you are paying another author is 2 cents, I want 2 cents per copy. If you are paying some authors 10 cents per copy I require 8 cents per copy. It is a simple as that. If your royalties are different for different media, use the royalty appropriate to that medium. If you are not currently paying any royalties to anybody, you don't owe me any royalties. Royalties would begin accruing to me only if you begin paying someone else. Royalties need not be distributed to me until at least $25 worth have accumulated. Anybody distributing 2COL or JETCOL must make clear that they are only charging for program distribution and are not selling the program itself. If you wish to charge more than $10 to distribute a disk containing my program, you must contact me first for my permission. If you are a CD-ROM distributor, you may charge up to $50 for a disk containing more than 100 programs without my permission. You may not modify or delete any files in this archive. You may de-archive or re-archive these files. I will be willing to entertain offers regarding marketing my shareware in preregistered form and would be willing to discuss modifications of the terms described above. You may contact me at the address below. If you are a catalog or rack vendor or a CD-ROM compiler, I would appreciate, but do not require, that you notify me when you begin distributing my products in order to keep you updated with the latest versions. I would also appreciate (but do not require) receiving a catalog or sample of your distribution package so that I can advise you of any inaccuracies in your documentation. My policy is subject to change without notice but an individual vendor would not be affected until explcitly notified either directly by me or by reading an updated version of this VENDOR.DOC. If a vendor violates any of the above terms I will require a royalty of $1 for every copy of 2COL or JETCOL distributed in non-compliance of my terms as described above.
