                       VOICE BLASTER QUICK PLAY

     

     Voice Blaster Quick Play is also included free!

     Voice Blaster Quick Play is a program written to receive an
     optional passing parameter that is the filename you wish to
     play.  If the filename is found, VB Quick play will run
     minimized while playing the specified file.  After the file
     is played, VB Quick Play automatically exits.  An excellent
     program to use to add .WAV file support in your Windows
     applications.  The calling Window will remain active while
     the .WAV file is being played in the background in a
     minimized window.  An example of playing a .WAV file from the
     Program Manager is:

          Select "File", then "Run", and then enter
          "c:\windows\vbqplay.exe tada.wav"

     This program currently only supports .WAV files.

                               WARRANTY

     

                          DISCLAIMER - AGREEMENT
                          ======================

     Users of VBLASTER must accept this disclaimer of warranty:

     VBLASTER 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 
     VBLASTER.

     VBLASTER is a "shareware program" and is provided at no charge
     to the 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 VBLASTER and 
     continue to use VBLASTER after a reasonable trial period, you 
     must make a registration payment of $19.95 to Millennium 
     Software.  The $19.95 registration fee will license one copy 
     for use on any one computer at any one time.  You must treat 
     this software just like a book.  An example is that this 
     software may be used by any number of people and may be 
     freely moved from one computer location to another, so long 
     as there is no possibility of it being used at one location 
     while it's being used at another.  Just as a book cannot be 
     read by two different persons at the same time.

     Commercial users of VBLASTER must register and pay for their
     copies of VBLASTER within 30 days of first use or their 
     license is withdrawn.  Site-License arrangements may be made 
     by contacting Millennium Software.

     Shareware Vendors have permission to distribute VBLASTER for 
     a fair distribution fee not to exceed $10.00.  You must make 
     it clear in your catalogs and CD Rom Shareware disks that 
     your products are shareware software, and that your charge
     for distributing does not include registration to the 
     authors.  Anyone distributing VBLASTER must also notify 
     Millennium Software Products in writing so that we can send
     updates to you.

     You are encouraged to pass a copy of VBLASTER along to your
     friends for evaluation.  Please encourage them to register 
     their copy if they find that they can use it.  All 
     registered users will receive a copy of the latest version 
     of the VBLASTER system.
