	Word Perfect also distributes its 5.0 demo program in archives,
although I forget which version.  Remember, though, that when used for
commercial purposes, almost all shareware and freeware programs become
commercial software.  Ie, Borland and WP pays for its use, and it is up to
SEA or PKware or Zoo to sell their product to Borland as a superior
archiver.  Thats called competition.
