Conditions of Use
The Dr Wimp package is distributed on an “As Is” basis, without warranty. No liability can be accepted for any consequential loss or damage, however caused, arising from the use of this package..
The Dr Wimp package (apart from the 3rd party utilities as detailed in the !!ReadMe!! file) may only be distributed as a whole. For conditions of use of these 3rd party applications see their own !Help files.
Distribution of the Dr Wimp package (and programs constructed using the DrWimp library) by third parties:
Freeware. The DrWimp library may be distributed for free and without the documentation, examples, utilities, etc. if it is being used as part of a freeware product. (It would be nice if your documentation acknowledged Dr Wimp - and don’t forget that my web-site has a page for links to your Dr Wimp applications, if you let me know .....)
Shareware. Those using Dr Wimp to produce Shareware products must donate 10% of the received income from these products to a charity of their choice within 6 months of receiving the income. The Shareware user-documentation must state prominently that this charity donation is being made and also that Dr Wimp was used to produce the product. The application’s name and author should be notified to the Dr Wimp copyright holder but no prior permission or further contact is needed.
Commercial. If you wish to distribute the Dr Wimp package with a commercial product (or distribute commercially a program that uses Dr Wimp) then a specific licence is needed from the Dr Wimp copyright holder.
Public Domain libraries may make a reasonable charge for materials, handling, etc. as long as this does not exceed £2.00 (UK) net for the Dr Wimp package.
The author retains copyright of Dr Wimp, documentation and examples at all times.
