Not bad for 25 bucks, right? I don't send out a disk because the unregistered version is exactly the same as the registered version, only minus your ID code COPYRIGHT, DISTRIBUTION, & DISCLAIMERS Font Monster and this documentation were written by me, Steven Fox. I am the sole owner of this piece of intellectual copyright and you must abide by all the legal mumbo-jumbo that always goes along with such things. Got it? If this program messes up your system, sue me. Shareware dealers*: You are permitted to distribute Font Monster as long as you distribute the unaltered FMONS342.ZIP archive file you received. You may charge a fee for such distribution as long as it is less than US$5, and that it is made quite clear before distribution that this software is shareware and that an additional fee is required by the author. If you can not abide by this notice, I reserve the right to refuse further distribution of Font Monster by your company. CD-ROM and book publishers*: You are permitted to publish the unaltered FMONS342.ZIP as long as you notify me in some way beforehand so that I can directly provide you with the latest update; and you must send me a copy of the CD-ROM or book on which Font Monster was included after it has been published. Failure to do so is a violation of my copyright, and will result in my refusal to allow inclusion of Font Monster on any further material published by your company, and you can expect to see your name here. I'm tired of being cordial about this, because far too many CD-ROM and book publishers are making zillions more $$$ than me off my hard work, and most of you don't even attempt to contact me. Free or subscription on-line services, archive sites, and BBS's*: If you fall into this catagory, you can post FMONS342.ZIP. No problem. *Exceptions to the above notices: If you received this program on a disk, directly from me, that means I am already familiar with your service and that I want you to distribute my software, even if you do not necessarily abide by my stated guidelines. If you are an on-line service, or some sort of on-line archive site, and you plan to issue a CD-ROM containing files from your archives, you have permission to include this version of Font Monster on your disk. Everyone else: Free distribution is most important to the success of Font Monster. If you like Font Monster and have a modem, please do everyone a favor and upload the unaltered FMONS342.ZIP to as many sites or BBSs as you possibly can.
