Keywords: Keep reading. Message-ID: <51618@iuvax.cs.indiana.edu> Date: 20 Jul 90 23:10:16 GMT References: <280@unf7.UUCP> <23465@boulder.Colorado.EDU> <1990Jul15.163209.10154@sjsumcs.sjsu.edu> Sender: news@iuvax.cs.indiana.edu Organization: Indiana University, Bloomington IN. Lines: 17 The remainder of the agreement says we can't duplicate the functionality, etc. of a Borland Development Environment or portion thereof. This looks like a claim on "look and feel" for which Borland is now being sued by Lotus! :-) Here's another sobering thought: This license was *not* printed in the TC++ manual. It was a separate booklet, which means it also applies to the Debugger, Profiler, and Assembler packages included if you got the complete Pro package. :-( And for the guy who said he had not read one of these before, don't worry, because it didn't say this before. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Roy Schmidt | #include Indiana University | /* They are _my_ thoughts, and you can't Graduate School of Business | have them, so there! */
