This is the first edition of the VVcode documentation and should be
consistent with the following versions of VVcode:
@itemize @bullet
@item VVcode system v1.00
@item MS-DOS port v1.00-001
@item OS/2 port v1.00-001
@item Unix port v1.00-001
@item VAX/VMS port v1.00-001
@item VM/CMS port v1.00-001

@unnumbered VVcode copying conditions
The programs currently being distributed that relate to VVcode are
@dfn{free}; this means that everyone is free to use them and free to
redistribute them freely. The VVcode-related programs are not in the
public domain; they are copyrighted and there are restrictions on their
distribution, but these restrictions are designed to permit everything that
a good cooperating citizen would want to do. What is not allowed is to try
to prevent others from further sharing any version of these programs that
they might get from you.@refill
Specifically, we want to make sure that you have the right to give away
copies of the programs that relate to VVcode, that you receive source code
or else can get it if you want it, that you can change these programs or
use pieces of them in new free programs, and that you know you can do these
things.@refill
To make sure that everyone has such rights, we have to forbid you to
deprive anyone else of these rights. For example, if you distribute copies
of the VVcode related programs, you must give the recipients all the rights
that you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the
source code. And you must tell them their rights.@refill
Also, for our own protection, we must make certain that everyone finds
out that there is no warranty for the programs that relate to VVcode. If
these programs are modified by someone else and passed on, we want their
recipients to know that what they have is not what we distributed, so that
any problems introduced by others will not reflect on our
reputation.@refill
The precise conditions of the licenses for the programs currently being
distributed that relate to VVcode are found in the General Public Licenses
that accompany them.@refill
