     This file contains important information for anyone who wishes to
     distribute 'Mission Supernova, Part One'. Please read this file if
     you are a commercial vendor, a BBS operator, or a user group
     librarian. For a disclaimer of warranty and questions on
     registration, please refer to the text file README.TXT.

  1. Definition of Shareware
  --------------------------

     Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before
     buying it. If you try a Shareware program and continue using it, you
     are expected to register. Individual programs differ on details --
     some request registration while others require it, some specify a
     maximum trial period. With registration, you get anything from the
     simple right to continue using the software to an updated program
     with printed manual.

     Copyright laws apply to both Shareware and commercial software, and
     the copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific
     exceptions as stated below. Shareware authors are accomplished
     programmers, just like commercial authors, and the programs are of
     comparable quality. (In both cases, there are good programs and bad
     ones!) The main difference is in the method of distribution. The
     author specifically grants the right to copy and distribute the
     software, either to all and sundry or to a specific group. For
     example, some authors require written permission before a commercial
     disk vendor may copy their Shareware.

     Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You
     should find software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether
     it's commercial or Shareware. The Shareware system makes fitting your
     needs easier, because you can try before you buy. And because the
     overhead is low, prices are low also. Shareware has the ultimate
     money-back guarantee -- if you don't use the product, you don't pay
     for it.


  2. Distribution Conditions for 'Mission Supernova, Part 1'
  ----------------------------------------------------------

     'Mission Supernova, Part 1' (abbreviated to 'MSN1') is distributed
     as "Shareware", not "Freeware" nor "Public Domain". All rights are
     reserved. However, 'MSN1' may be freely distributed by commercial
     vendors, user groups, BBS operators, or individuals, with the
     following restrictions:

     - 'MSN1' must be distributed in unmodified form in its entirety,
       including all file names, program code, documentation, and any
       related files. No other programs or files may be included. The
       complete game consists of an archive file, an installation routine
       and two (2) text files. A detailed file list is given below.

     - 'MSN1' may not be included in combination with any other software
       or hardware product as an enticement or for any other reason,
       without special permission from Peter Weber (for address look at
       top of file).

     - No fee or payment may be charged or accepted for 'MSN1', other than
       a small disk distribution fee (up to 10 US$ including shipping &
       handling, or comparable amounts in other currencies).

     - 'MSN1' may not be described in catalogs or promotional material as
       "public domain" or "free" software.

     - Any advertising and/or packaging must explain the shareware concept
       and the obligations associated with continued use of shareware.
