Rights and Responsibilities

    The files listed in the Files List section above are each Copyright 1993
    by Adam M. Costello (henceforth "I").

    I grant everyone permission to use these files in any way, subject to
    the following two restrictions:

     1) No one may distribute modifications of any of the files unless I am
        the one who modified them.

     2) No one may distribute any one of the files unless it is accompanied
        by all of the other files.

    I cannot disallow the distribution of patches, but I would prefer that
    users send me suggestions for changes so that I can incorporate them
    into future versions of Par.  See the Bugs section for my addresses.

    All official versions of Par will have version numbers that fit the
    pattern "<digits>.<digits>".  Those who distribute patches should, as a
    courtesy, make sure that the patch alters all instances of the version
    number (except in the releasenotes file) to something that doesn't fit
    the pattern, to avoid confusion between official versions and patched
    versions.

    Though I have tried to make sure that Par is free of bugs, I make no
    guarantees about its soundness.  Therefore, I am not responsible for any
    damage resulting from the use of these files.
