    The Includes and Amiga.Lib are COMMODORE files and copyrighten by
    Commodore.	I cannot distribute them in the FREEWARE version of DICE.

    I have a license to distribute them in the REGISTERED version of DICE,
    just as Lattice and Manx have licenses to distribute them with their own
    products.

    No, they cannot be copied.	Your friend can purchase them from CATS
    directly (Native Developer's Update, $20 I believe), or he can register
    for DICE ($40) to get the registered version which includes them.

    The reason I cannot distribute them with the freeware version, even
    freeware versions that I send to people personally, is that the copyright
    notice would become too confusing: "These files here cannot be redistributed
    but those over there can" etc...  Not to mention the fact that my
    distributing them over a public network would put my inviolation of the
    terms!

    Since the registered version is *not* freely redistributable the copyright
    notice and terms are plain and simple, and apply to the whole product.
