"The AMUL System" entails all executable programs which compose the AMUL System; these being "AMUL", "AMULCom" and "AMAN" and "AWho". "AMUL Documentation" entails all documents relating to AMUL or other assosciated programs. "User files" or "Examples" entails non-executable/non-documentation files/programs enclosed within AMUL archives, such as example adventure files, example script files, Registration templates and so forth. The AMUL System and all executable programs that entails, are ShareWare. This means they may be freely distributed. However, anyone possessing any copy/copies of AMUL for a total of more than 60 days is bound to either register with the authors for continued usage, or to remove all copies of The AMUL System from his machine(s) and or other equipment/media. Registration of The AMUL System covers ONLY one person, and such machines as are actually possesed by themselves. This covers a MAXIMUM of THREE Computing devices ("Computers"). Failure to comply with this "Pay as you use" scheme is THEFT. If, after 60 days you retain a copy of AMUL (other than in its archived state) and/ or use such a version, said copy is ILLEGAL/Pirate! The ShareWare registration fee for The AMUL System is 15 GB Pounds. If you feel, however, that The AMUL System is worth more than 15 pounds, every extra pound will go in your favour 8-). We cannot accept payments in foreign currencies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ALL AMUL Documentation and User Files/Examples are PUBLIC DOMAIN. ============================================================================== DESPERATE PLEA! --------------- Due to difficult financial circumstances, the author of AMUL is currently computerless. This is not a problem. I have access to a computer but only on floppies; therefore AMUL development is slow and irratic. There are no plans for him to return to the computer world except to finish AMUL. *IF* you want to see this project finished, your money is DESPERATELY needed! All money will go towards buying an A500 SCSI controller to enable me the use of the Quantum Hard-Drive which contains my 'C'-Compiler, AMUL Source and various other bits and pieces. If you happen to be or atleast be in-touch with a member of *any* company (either Soft- or Hard-ware based) which could help us and would be in ANY way interested in supporting this project, then **PLEASE** atleast get in touch with me... You may be able to help! ============================================================================== About the documentation ----------------------- Please read through the various .DOC files BEFORE turning to AMULDoc.Txt and FuncDoc.Txt.... The latter are OLDER versions of the documents, and should be used to fill any gaps left through the various (incomplete) .DOC files. The full set of .DOC files will be finished by version 0.9 or 1.0 of AMUL. Also, you should read Apollogy.AMUL and any Updates.AMULxxx files which come within the archive. ============================================================================== Get In Touch! ------------- The address for KFS is: KingFisher Software D&EG International (Ref: ______) 70 Legsby Avenue, Grimsby, South Humberside ENGLAND DN32 0NE (For AMUL subscriptions, Ref: should be "Ref: AASSUB", for enquiries about KingFisher Software D&EG, Ref: should be "Ref: KFSDEG).
