13: the program is placed on, if any) is permitted in either source or
14:
15: binary forms, provided that this file, "mint.doc", and all "readme" files
16:
17: are included with the program, and provided further that if the source code
18:
19: is not included then directions for obtaining the source code are.

23: (2) Redistribution for profit is permitted only with the express written
24:
25: permission of the author, except in the following cases:

42:
43: is included, and provided that the price charged for disks containing

67: WARNING: This program does some very low level things to your computer.
68:
69: MiNT works well on my machine, and I trust my data to it. But
70:
71: then, I make regular backups, so even if a horrible bug in MiNT that
72:
73: I haven't found yet trashes my hard drive, I won't lose much. You'll
74:
75: have to decide for yourself about trusting your data to MiNT. I would
76:
77: certainly recommend regular backups in any event.
