[comp.sys.mac.programmer] Legal MacApp Question

cm33+@andrew.cmu.edu (Claes-Fredrik Mannby) (11/22/88)

I recently bought MacApp, and I have some question:

1)	The distribution license agreement doesn't mention shareware
	distribution.  Will Apple allow shareware distribution at all?  If so,
	is the $100 fee for life?  Can the distribution be officially
	terminated?  This would be necessary either if the program wasn't
	making enough profit to pay for the $100 or if Apple demands that
	distribution be stopped.
	
2)	MacApp:MacApp SourceFiles:UPatch.p contains 3 function with the
	following interface:

	FUNCTION  <name>(VAR thePatch: TrapPatch; theTrapNum: INTEGER;
	
	but the implementation states:
	
	FUNCTION  PatchTrap(VAR thePatch: TrapPatch; theTrapNum: INTEGER;
		trapType: INTEGER; routine: Ptr): INTEGER; EXTERNAL;
		
	Which one should I change?
	
	(This is MacApp 1.1.1)
	
Thanks for your help.

Please mail answer to cm33+@andrew.cmu.edu (use arpanet if net must be
specified).

(An aside for Apple:  to prevent fooling more people like myself, it would
be nice if you could publicize the fact that Asm is necessary to run MacApp.
I purchased MPW through TML Systems, and Asm is not included.  Then I bought
MacApp.  Now I'll have to spend another $100.  I'm not sure I would have done
it had I known in advance.  Especially with the licensing fees which are pretty
stiff for small time programmers like me who might want to make a buck or two
on their programs.)
