Although this document expressly defines D.D.O. F/X, it does not in any | |
way diminish the right of ownership of D.D.O. F/X by Locatha Industries | |
Incorporated. Locatha Industries Incorporated alone reserves the right to | |
license and approve the use of D.D.O. F/X to any entity, whether it be for | |
Private, Commercial, or Industrial use. We also reserve the right to | |
prohibit the use of D.D.O. F/X to any entity for any reason we see fit. | |
If you intend to add D.D.O. F/X support to any product for any purpose, you | |
must first agree to the terms of the licensing agreement listed below. | |
DISCLAIMER | |
USE OF THE D.D.O. F/X LANGUAGE IS SUBJECT TO THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSING | |
AGREEMENT. YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY READ THE FOLLOWING LICENSE WHICH | |
DESCRIBES THE TERMS, CONDITIONS, AND LIMITED WARRANTY EXPRESSLY AND | |
PRECISELY. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THE TERMS SET BELOW YOU SHOULD | |
DISCONTINUE USE OF THE D.D.O. F/X LANGUAGE. DO NOT! USE THE D.D.O. F/X | |
LANGUAGE UNLESS YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS LICENSING | |
AGREEMENT. | |
LICENSE | |
Conditions: | |
This license governs two distinct and separate Levels of using | |
D.D.O. F/X: (APPLICATION LEVEL and DEVELOPER LEVEL). | |
APPLICATION LEVEL: Application level uses of D.D.O. F/X include the | |
following: | |
. A program capable of transmitting D.D.O. F/X script commands | |
electronically via any existing device to LITERM-F/X, and | |
in addition has the capability of receiving and understanding | |
any return transmissions which result from above mentioned | |
script commands. An Application Level Program is NOT an | |
interpreter of D.D.O. F/X. It is capable only of transmitting | |
D.D.O. F/X commands and receiving data back from those | |
commands and understanding how to process what is produced | |
as a transmission from the sending of those commands. Any | |
interpretation of D.D.O. F/X commands directly by a D.D.O. F/X | |
Application Level program would be in violation of this | |
license agreement. | |
. A BBS (Bulletin Board System) would be an example of an Application | |
Level program. Following the description above. | |
. A BBS Door (program executed as a child process of a BBS) would be | |
an example of an Application Level Program. Following the description | |
above. | |
DEVELOPER LEVEL: Developer level uses of D.D.O. F/X include the | |
following: | |
. A program capable of interpreting D.D.O. F/X script commands | |
directly and performing some function based on those D.D.O. F/X | |
script commands. If a program has the ability to accept a | |
D.D.O. F/X command by any means and perform an action based on | |
that command it must adhere to this License Agreement and thus | |
be identified as a Developer Level program. | |
. A TERMINAL PROGRAM (Fulfilling a similar Roll as LITERM-F/X) would | |
be an example of a Developer Level program. Following the description | |
above. | |
. A Designer program (Such as a Painting program, or Layout program) | |
would be an example of a Developer Level program. Following the | |
description above. | |
If you believe your program to be in doubt as to which LEVEL it falls | |
under, you may contact the offices of Locatha Industries, Inc. and we | |
would be more than happy to clarify it for you. | |
APPLICATION LEVEL: If your program falls within the Application Level | |
of this License agreement you are not required to register your product | |
and your company as a developer for Locatha Industries Inc. You are free | |
to take Full advantage (Royalty free) of the D.D.O. F/X language so long | |
as your product does not conflict with Application Level requirements. | |
Your are granted the limited right to advertise your product as a D.D.O. F/X | |
compliant product. However, you may not make any claims to ownership of | |
the D.D.O. F/X Trademark. Within the Identification portions of your | |
programs documentation, Locatha Industries Incorporated MUST be giving | |
proper identification as the sole owner of the D.D.O. F/X trademark | |
and all rights reserved. Failure to include the Copyright notice of | |
D.D.O. F/X within your programs documentation will render your program | |
in violation of this License Agreement. Below is what should be included | |
within your programs Documentation. | |

before production of your product. We do not guarantee that all submissions | |

make available to the public a Developer Level product for any reason | |

Developer License. | |
