Hi,

	A person who wants to try out DICE needs to know how to go about getting
the header files (includes) and amiga.lib.  Owning Manx C 5.0, I took a
quick look at the files.  The Manx std c includes are stamped with their
copyright, but the standard 1.3 includes for the amiga stuff seem to lack
any copyright notice at all.  Does this mean I could wrap them up and send
them to this person?  I hesitate since CATS sells this stuff for a small fee.
Is the fee just to cover the duplication and postage, or does the price act
as a license to use the stuff?  Since Manx doesn't use amiga.lib, nor include
it with teh distribution, how do I get it?  I think Lattice distributes it.
Assuming there is no restriction to the copying of the header files, does
this carry over to this library?

	So, getting down to the real question:  Can these files be copied, and
if not where should I tell this guy to seek them.  Thanks in advance for
any help.
