Distribution Restrictions for the C Adventure Toolkit

-----------------------------------------------------



The C Adventure Toolkit (CAT) is not public domain/free software - it has been

released as SHAREWARE. This means that if you are a regular user of CAT, then

you should pay for your copy and register with the author (see REGISTER.TXT).

Only from the income from registration fees can the author provide product 

support, make enhancements etc.



Those users of CAT who have not registered are granted a limited license to 

use the system on an evaluation basis. PLEASE register if you use CAT!



CAT is copyrighted by the Author. This includes all source code, documentation

and programs. Vendors/Individuals are granted rights to distribute CAT with

the following restrictions:



 1) The distribution disk must not be altered in any way, other than 

    adding small text/batch files that may help users.



    YOU MUST NOT AMEND OR DELETE ANY FILES ON THE DISK.



 2) If possible, you should ensure that your duplicating method renders 

    neither the ST nor the PC versions of CAT unusable.



 2) If you are distributing CAT to a potentially large audience, then you

    should inform the author of your intents. You should NOT give a telephone

    support service for CAT - you should inform users that registration

    with the author will entitle them to full support.



 3) You should make reasonable efforts to ensure that the latest version of the

    system is distributed.



 Both registered users and Vendors of CAT (2 above) will be automatically

 informed of new releases. These will be available for a nominal fee.



 Although you are automatically granted rights to distribute CAT, the author

 reserves the right to revoke distribution rights from any vendor who does

 not attempt to adhere to the above restrictions.





Registered users of CAT have full rights to sell any adventures they may have

written using the system. However, the adventure should include some mention

that it was 'written with the C Adventure Toolkit' - preferably in the standard

advertisement.



Non-registered users of CAT have NO RIGHTS to distribute their adventure either

commercially, or non-commercially.

 

DISCLAIMER: THE C ADVENTURE TOOLKIT (CAT) COMES WITH NO WARRANTIES 

OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR OF FITNESS FOR A 

PARTICULAR PURPOSE. CAT IS AVAILABLE AS IS. IN NO EVENT WILL THE AUTHOR BE 

LIABLE FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY LOST PROFITS OR INCIDENTAL AND CONSEQUENTIAL

DAMAGES, EVEN IF THE AUTHOR HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES
