=================================================================== IMPORTANT PROGRAM INFORMATION ! - READ BEFORE PROCEEDING =================================================================== NOTICE - TIDY-UP, OR ANY OF ITS ASSOCIATED FILES, IS NOT PUBLIC DOMAIN SOFTWARE! Thank you for obtaining and trying Tidy-Up. Tidy-Up is being initially distributed under the Shareware concept. The Shareware version of Tidy- Up is a complete, fully functional working program and is identical to the registered version, except that a reminder to register has been in- cluded as a message that appears during file moves, copies, and deletes. The Shareware version of the program, easily recognized by the TIDYUPD.EXE executable file name, may be freely copied and distributed via mail, bulletin board, computer club, etc., providing that no fee is charged for the software, supporting files, or for the documentation. All original files must be included and must be distributed in an unaltered state. No charge is allowed for the program; however, a copying fee, not to exceed $5.00, may be charged. The industry rules concerning Shareware and its distribution shall apply. TIDYUP.EXE, both in the Shareware and registered form, along with all associated documentation and support files, including icons, has been copyrighted, and all of the applicable rules, regulations, and copyright laws shall apply. Registered users are entitled to free technical support and shall be notified whenever any upgrades are available. Upgrades shall be of fered at a reduced price. Any and all constructive input is welcome. In particular, I am inter ested in any situations where Tidy-Up will not work, or works but causes problems. Every attempt will be made to correct the problem, and incorporate the changes into the next revision. All ideas and suggestions on how to improve the program will be gratefully accepted, and if workable, will be incorporated into future versions. =================================================================== WARNING !! =================================================================== Due to the unfortunate actions of a very few, the computer virus has been born. The author of Tidy-Up guarantees that the registered version of the product, on the original disk only, is free from all viruses. It is the responsibility of the end user to make the determination whether or not his copy of the program is indeed the original registered copy, a valid backup copy, or something else of questionable nature. Upon making this determination, it is the further responsibility of the end user to proceed in a manner best determined by his or her own judgement. Tidy-Up will accept no liability (due to computer virus or other alteration) whatsoever for any damage, loss of data, file corruption, etc., that may be produced by an unregistered copy of this program. Furthermore, due to the sometimes lack of consistent computer hardware and software standards, and the hardware variations from manufacturer to manufacturer, the end user is cautioned that he uses this program at his own risk. Every attempt has been made to make this program safe, compatible, and user friendly, however, since it does use DOS interrupts, and since not all machines are the same, Tidy-Up cannot accept any liability for any damage to files or loss of data. The user should take the necessary preliminary precautions when first using the program to make sure that it is compatible with his equipment. Tidy-Up has been compiled and tested using an officially released version of Microsoft (R) DOS 5.0 and does not appear to experience any problems. =================================================================== FILE LIST =================================================================== The files contained in the Tidy-Up package are as follows and perform the following functions: TIDYUP.EXE - The registered stand alone version of the program.
