It is of use to programmers that does not want other users to hack his own program by decompiling it, especially to shareware programmers who want to protect their programs or games from being illegally registered by hackers. It is simple to use, as nothing has to be modified in your source code. 캑 COPYRIGHT 쳐 읕컴컴컴컴컴� This manual and the program here described are copyrighted (c)1995 by Marco Aicardi.

It shall not be distributed by anyone other than the Author. Contact the Author by e-mail to obtain a limited demo version of OPL Prot. The demo version will let you check if OPL Prot fits your purposes. It will protect only programs with a maximum of 3 procedures and the source code should not exceed 100 lines. It will have only 1 protection method and the protected modules will display a nag screen with your name. Modules protected with demo version of OPL Prot *MUST* not be distributed. 컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴 I do not succeed in contacting me by e-mail, please ask Steve Litchfield for my new e-mail address writing to: slitchfield@cix.compulink.co.uk 컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴 If you will think OPL Prot will fit your own purposes, you will have to register it.

Add �2 or $3 for 3"� disk shipping. Add other �2 or $3 if you send a bank check. As the Protect efficiency will be based on the program diffusion, I will *ONLY* register users who will send me a test version of his work (or screen shots by fax) or who have already published shareware programs. I will *NOT* register programmers which are all over the world known as decompiler makers. I am very sorry about this, as I think Mike Rudin (RevTran maker) is a great coder, but I can't let anybody have in his hand a way to hack my Protector. 캑 WHY REGISTERING 쳐 읕컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴� After paying the registeration fee, you will receive OPL Prot package containing: * Your own last OPL Prot version * 5 different protection methods user-selectable * Upgrade information at minimum fees * Complete documentation You will be granted the authorization to spread your own programs protected with OPL Prot, as long as you insert a OPL Prot copyright notice as reported in the documentation you will registered version. 캑 USE 쳐 읕컴컴� OPL Protect Registered has command line arguments not stated here but explained in the package documentation.
