                    ----------------------------

                            2000-Jul-4

          Copyright (C) 2000 by Catharon Productions, Inc.
 


Introduction
============

  This license  applies  to  source  files  distributed  by Catharon
  Productions,  Inc.  in  several  archive  packages.  This  license
  applies to all files found in such  packages  which  do  not  fall
  under their own explicit license.

  This  license   was  inspired  by  the  BSD,   Artistic,  and  IJG
  (Independent JPEG  Group) licenses, which  all encourage inclusion
  and  use of  free  software in  commercial  and freeware  products
  alike.  As a consequence, its main points are that:

    o We don't promise that this software works.  However, we are 
      interested in any kind of bug reports. (`as is' distribution)

    o You can  use this software for whatever you  want, in parts or
      full form, without having to pay us. (`royalty-free' usage)

    o You may not pretend that  you wrote this software.  If you use
      it, or  only parts of it,  in a program,  you must acknowledge
      somewhere  in  your  documentation  that  you  have  used  the
      Catharon Code. (`credits')

  We  specifically  permit  and  encourage  the  inclusion  of  this
  software,  with  or without modifications, in commercial products.
  We disclaim all  warranties  covering  the packages distributed by
  Catharon Productions, Inc. and  assume  no  liability  related  to
  their use.


Legal Terms
===========

0. Definitions
--------------

  Throughout  this license, the terms `Catharon Package', `package',
  and  `Catharon  Code'  refer  to   the  set  of  files  originally
  distributed by Catharon Productions, Inc.

  `You' refers to the licensee, or person using the  project,  where
  `using' is a generic term including compiling the project's source
  code  as  well  as linking it to form a `program' or `executable'.
  This program  is  referred  to  as  `a  program  using  one of the
  Catharon Packages'.

  This license applies to all  files  distributed  in  the  original
  Catharon  Package(s),  including  all  source  code,  binaries and
  documentation,  unless  otherwise  stated   in  the  file  in  its
  original, unmodified form as distributed in the original  archive.
  If  you  are unsure whether or not a particular file is covered by
  this license, you must contact us to verify this.

  The  Catharon  Packages  are   copyright   (C)  2000  by  Catharon
  Productions, Inc. All rights reserved except as specified below.

1. No Warranty

  BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES CAUSED BY THE USE OF OR THE INABILITY TO

  This license  grants  a  worldwide,  royalty-free,  perpetual  and

  display,  copy,  create   derivative   works  of,  distribute  and
  sublicense the Catharon Packages (in both source and  object  code
  forms)  and  derivative  works  thereof  for  any  purpose; and to
  authorize others to exercise  some  or  all  of the rights granted
  herein, subject to the following conditions:

    o Redistribution  of source code  must retain this  license file
      (`license.txt') unaltered; any additions, deletions or changes
      to   the  original   files  must   be  clearly   indicated  in
      accompanying  documentation.   The  copyright notices  of  the
      unaltered, original  files must be preserved in  all copies of
      source files.

    o Redistribution in binary form must provide a  disclaimer  that
      states  that  the  software  is  based  in part on the work of
      Catharon Productions, Inc. in  the  distribution documentation.

  These  conditions  apply  to any software derived from or based on
  the Catharon Packages, not just  the unmodified files.  If you use
  our work, you must acknowledge us.  However, no fee need  be  paid
  to us.

3. Advertising
--------------

  Neither Catharon Productions, Inc.  and contributors nor you shall
  use  the  name  of  the  other  for  commercial,  advertising,  or
  promotional purposes without specific prior written permission.

  We suggest, but do not require, that you use the following  phrase
  to refer to this software in your documentation: 'this software is
  based in part on the Catharon Typography Project'.

  As you have not signed this  license,  you  are  not  required  to
  accept  it.   However,  as  the  Catharon Packages are copyrighted
  material, only this license,  or  another  one contracted with the
  authors, grants you the right to use, distribute, and  modify  it.
  Therefore,  by  using,  distributing,  or  modifying  the Catharon
  Packages, you indicate  that  you  understand  and  accept all the
  terms of this license.
