REGISTRATION INFORMATION:
Definition of Shareware. . .
Shareware distribution gives users a chance to try software before
buying it. If you try a shareware program and continue using it, you are
expected to register. Individual programs differ on details -- some
request registration while others require it, some specify a maximum
trial period. With registration, you get anything from the simple right
to continue using the software to an updated program with printed manual.
Copyright laws apply to both shareware and commercial software, and
the copyright holder retains all rights, with a few specific exceptions
as stated below. Shareware authors are accomplished programmers, just
like commercial authors, and the programs are of comparable quality. (In
both cases, there are good programs and bad ones!) The main difference is
in the method of distribution. The author specifically grants the right
to copy and distribute the software, either to all and sundry or to a
specific group. For example, some authors require written
permission before a commercial disk vendor may copy their shareware.
Shareware is a distribution method, not a type of software. You
should find software that suits your needs and pocketbook, whether it's
commercial or shareware. The shareware system makes fitting your needs
easier, because you can try before you buy. And because the overhead is
low, prices are low also. Shareware has the ultimate money-back guarantee
-- if you don't use the product, you don't pay for it.
ARIS Version Tracking System Disclaimer - Agreement. . .
Users of ARIS Version Tracking System (AVTS) must accept this
disclaimer of warranty: AVTS is supplied as-is. The author disclaims
all warranties, expressed or implied, including, without limitation,
the warranties of merchantability and of fitness for any purpose.
The author assumes no liability for damages, direct or consequential,
which may result from the use of AVTS.

Individual Registration. . .
AVTS is a copyrighted shareware program by Alexander Riedel,
President, ARIS Germany. The evaluation version of AVTS is offered at
no charge to any potential user for evaluation. Feel free to share it
with your friends, but please do not give it away altered or as part
of another system. The essence of "user-supported" software is to
provide personal computer users with quality software without high
prices, and yet to provide incentive for programmers to continue to
develop new products.
If you find this program useful and find that you are using AVTS
after a 60-day trial period, you must make a registration payment of $50.
Checks must be made payable to Alexander Riedel. Checks must be drawn
on any US or German bank. For checks of other countries please add
$3 handling fee.
You will be sent by return mail a registered copy of the latest version
of AVTS with hard copy of the user's manual. This registered version
also contains a small utility that converts projects created with AVTS
versions prior to 1.3 the new new file formats.
Registration also entitles you to user support by mail or CompuServe
E-mail for at least one year, to a free copy by mail of the next major
update to AVTS.
You may order your registration by one of several ways:
o Directly, by sending cash, check or money order to
Alexander Riedel Informations-Systeme
Parkstr. 2
D-85646 Anzing
Germany
o You may also register online if you are a CompuServe
member. Type GO SWREG and use registration ID #579.
The amount charged by CompuServe includes shipping
via air mail.
Site Licenses. . .
For a "corporate" user, in which a company wishes to provide AVTS as a
workplace resource for employees, the company's registration may be
extended to a license for multiple users in any combination of two ways:
1. The single-user license conferred with original $50 registration
may be extended to any number of additional users at the rate of $12.50
per additional user, with no increment in the original benefits (ie., no
additional hard copies of manual will be sent, only one copy of the
future upgrade will be sent, technical support provided only to the
original registrant).
I recognize that the number of users afforded access to AVTS in a
large company or network will vary as employees come and go and users are
added and subtracted, and so I ask only for a good-faith estimate, BUT
based on the total number of users afforded access, NOT on some lower
estimate of the number of users who might be using AVTS
simultaneously. The company may at its own expense print this number of
additional manuals and disks to distribute to the added users. I have
priced this license extension so reasonably that this additional cost per
additional authorized user is affordable for the smallest to the largest
company, and represents a small fraction of the workplace productivity
gain benefiting each user.
2. The original license may be extended to additional users at the
rate of $25 per user, and I will send one complete registration package
(disk plus manual and any current material fringe benefits) per
additional user.
In either case of license extension, the users added are licensed to
use AVTS ONLY in the workplace for which the license extension was
purchased. Any users who wish copies for their personal use MUST
individually register AVTS with ARIS.
Shareware Distribution. . .
Distributors and BBS sysops recognized by the Association of
Shareware Professionals (ASP) as adhering to its guidelines for shareware
distributors may begin offering AVTS in their catalogs/BBS services
immediately.
Other distributors whose only remuneration is a nominal fee for the disk
itself, and whose literature makes it clear to their buyers that the
program material must be separately purchased from the author, may also
offer AVTS immediately, but should inform me so that I can provide them
periodic updates. Distributors who wish to sell AVTS packaged as or in
a retail product must contact me, and are NOT authorized to distribute
this version of AVTS without prior approval.

Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
