~As stated in another article (sorry didn't copy to include
~here) you can copywrite your material by simply inserting:
~                  ^^^^^
~  (c) 1989 Your name, or other variations, 
~
~Note:  This is legal in the U.S. but possibly not in other
~countries, some countries do not recognize the (c) and so you
~must write the word Copywrite.  Also, some countries require a
~						^^^^^
~the "All rights reserved" inclusion so the best way to insert a
~copywrite notice is:
~    ^^^^^
~
~(c) Copywrite 1989 Yourname, All rights reserved. 
~        ^^^^^
~
~To insure that it is acknowledged by countries other than the
~U.S.
~
Be sure to spell it right when you write it down.
The copyright is your right to copy, and nobody
else's.  strcmp("copywrite","copyright") <> 0
