LIBRARYN.TXT (C)1993 by DP_BYTER, proliferate freely. Librarians, shareware distributors, sysops, etc: This is release 1.3C The previous release may be named SURVEY LAND YOURSELF in the late versions, or SURVEY IT YOURSELF in the earliest pre-release. Please proliferate the information on this disk. Feel free to do so for free, or to charge a reasonable materials & copying fee (less than five bux). You may compress the files at your convenience, fill the empty space with other shareware or advertising, and distribute files or parts of files with other shareware. Your customers abhor a 1/2 empty disk! There are six groups of files. First is header files, such as "README, COPYRIGHT, REGISTRATION, WARRANTY". Second is "SIY*.TXT", "Survey It Yourself: A Quick, Easy, and Inexpensive Preliminary Estimate Using the Compass & Tape Method". Third is "CAVEMAP1", my personal program (in GW-BASIC) to handle the data and draw a map on the printer. There are also several graphs, tables, and examples to be used with CAVEMAP. This third group has been moved to another disk (SLY1??B) so that your 360KB disk customers may still use this disk. Fourth is "RETIRE", some information about cheap land for sale here in the Kentucky Boonies, a good place to retire young or just have a vacation place. Fifth is FILLER, since Nature abhors a 1/2 empty disk. See DIRECTRY.TXT for a file by file description. Last is TAILER, files which should be at the end of the directory. I suggest that authors write short advertisements to be included on other disks, and that we leave room on our disks for advertising space. Your customers might be amused by MS_BAT. There's also SIY2LINR.BAS, a BASIC 2 liner for your collection. If you are dissatisfied with your mailers, then you should read MAILERS.TXT My mailers can easily ship a disk & cover letter for two ounces. I can even mail two disks for 2 oz, if I enclose nothing else.
