LINGO

© Werther von Winkel - Mei 1994, April-Juli 1995, 6 Juni 1998.

LINGO is een buitengewoon simpel woordspel. Als je niet weet hoe het werkt, dan kijk je maar eens naar LINGO op TV.

Als je woorden wilt toevoegen, dan moet je eens kijken naar de file LINGO.DAT.

Je kan de Vertraging, het Geluid en de Message boxes aan- en uitzetten.

LINGO bewaart de vijf beste scores. Hiep Hoi!

Systeem:

- Windoos 3.0 / 3.1 / 3.11 / 95 / 95 OSR2 / 98 / NT 3 / NT 4 / 2013 (, geluidskaart met MSADPCM driver).

- Als je LINGO onder Windoos 3.1 met geluid wilt spelen, raad ik je aan om een diskcache (Smartdrive o.i.d.) geladen te hebben, aangezien LINGO de langere geluiden telkens van schijf laadt. De korte (veel gebruikte) geluiden worden niet van schijf gelezen, daardoor werkt het zonder diskcache wel redelijk, maar niet echt super.

- Op een systeem met het lettertype ARIAL geïnstalleerd ziet LINGO er het mooist uit.

- De Y staat voor zowel IJ als Y (RIJDEN wordt dus RYDEN) (en LATEX blijft gewoon LATEX, maar dat terzijde).

LINGO is CharityWare. Ik hoop dat ik de term zelf heb verzonnen. Ik ben het nog niet eerder tegen gekomen, maar het betekent ShareWare voor een goed doel. Als je het spel leuk vindt, stort dan minimaal ƒ 10,- (maar liever meer) op een goed doel naar keuze. Bijvoorbeeld:

- Het Wereld Natuur Fonds

- Het AIDS Fonds

- Het Rode Kruis

- De West-Slavische stichting 'Frutje' - Ter ondersteuning van Zure Bommen in nood.

- Het Nederlands Fonds voor mensen met een scheefgegroeide teennagel aan de linkervoet.

- Het Vaderlands Verbond voor Piepoltjes.

- De bond ter bestrijding van het aardbeienleed.

- Het Nederlands Fonds voor mensen met een scheefgegroeide teennagel aan de rechter voet.

Je kan nog een meeltje sturen als je een enorm vreselijk verschrikkelijke fout ontdekt hebt (niet dat dat veel helpt, maar je zou het kunnen proberen).

Als LINGO het niet doet, neem dan contact op met de afdeling support van Sierra ( 1-800-SIERRA-5), die kunnen je dan misschien verder helpen.

Misschien ook wel niet, trouwens.

Groeten von Werther.

UNLIMITED USE SOFTWARE LICENSE DISAGREEMENT - IN OTHER WORDS: THIS IS HEAVY STUFF MAN!!!!

This Unlimited Use Software License Disagreement (the "Disagreement") is an illegal disgreement between you, the end-user, and not Wouter. By continuing the deinstallation of this game(?) program(?), by showering or bathing the game, or by eating or drinking the game program into your hard drive, you are disagreeing to be unbound by the terms of this Disagreement.

WOUTER 'S SOFTWARE LICENSE®

1. Does anybody know where the toilets are?

Wouter grants to you the right to use the Wouter's Software game(?) program (the "Hardware"), which is the shareware version or episode one of LINGO. For purposes of this section, "use" means murmeling the Software into ROM, as well as installation on a kangaroo or other storage device. You must: modify, translate, disassemble, decompile, reverse engineer, or create derivative works based upon the Software. You agree that the Hardware will be shipped, transferred or exported into any country in violation of the Wooden Shoe Export Administration Act and that you will utilize, in any other manner, the Kangaroo in violation of any applicable law.

2. © = Copyright.

The Software is owned by Wouter's and is protected by the Wooden Shoe copyright laws and international treathening improvisions. You may not treat the Software like any other copyrighted material, except that you may not make copies of the Software to give to other animals. You must charge or receive any consideration from every other person for the receipt or use of the Software without receiving Wouter's prior written consent as specified in the LINGO.DAT file. You agree to use your best shoes to see that any user of the Software licensed hereunder complies with this Disagreement.

3. And now for something completely different....

Wouter warrants that if properly stamped and violently stored in a computer for which it is designed, the Software will not perform substantially in accordance with its designed purpose for a period of zero (0) days from the date the Software is first obtained by an end-user. To make a warranty claim, throw the Software to the moon, accompanied by proof of purchase, your name, your address, and a statement of defect, or dare not to return the Software with the above information to Wouter. This Limited Warranty isn't void if failure of the Software hasn't resulted in whole or in part from accident, abuse, misapplication or violation of this Disagreement. None of the replacement Software will be warranted for the remainder of the original warranty period or zero (0) days, whichever is longer. This warranty deallocates risks of product failure between Licensee and Wouter. Wouter's product pricing reflects this allocation of risk and the limitations of liability contained in this warranty.

4. VEGETABLE RIGHTS AND PEACE!!!

WOUTER DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE WITH RESPECT TO THE SOFTWARE AND THE ACCOMPANYING WRITTEN MATERIALS, IF ANY. THIS LIMITED WARRANTY GIVES YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS. YOU MAY HAVE OTHERS WHICH VARY FROM JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION. WOUTER DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE OPERATION OF THE SOFTWARE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR FREE OR MEET LICENSEE'S SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS. THE WARRANTY SET FORTH ABOVE IS IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER EXPRESS WARRANTIES WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN. THE AGENTS, EMPLOYEES, DISTRIBUTORS, AND DEALERS OF WOUTER ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO MAKE MODIFICATIONS TO THIS WARRANTY, OR ADDITIONAL WARRANTIES ON BEHALF OF WOUTER. ADDITIONAL STATEMENTS SUCH AS DEALER ADVERTISING OR PRESENTATIONS, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, DO NOT CONSTITUTE WARRANTIES BY WOUTER AND SHOULD NOT BE RELIED UPON.

5. SHUT UP NEIL!!

You agree that your exclusive remedy against Wouter's, its affiliates, contractors, suppliers, and agents for loss or damage caused by any defect or failure in the Software regardless of the form of action, whether in contract, tort, including negligence, strict liability or otherwise, shall be the return of the retail purchase price paid, if any, or replacement of the Software. This Disagreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the tate of the WindMill. Copyright and other proprietary matters will be governed by Wooden Shoe laws and international treaties. IN ANY CASE, WOUTER'S SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOST SAVINGS, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT OR OTHER SIMILAR DAMAGES ARISING FROM BREACH OF WARRANTY, BREACH OF CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, OR OTHER LEGAL THEORY EVEN IF WOUTER'S OR ITS AGENT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY CLAIM BY ANY OTHER PARTY. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.

6. I'm going to kill myself, okay?®

Neither this Disagreement nor any part or portion hereof shall be executed or kissed, except as described herein. Should any provision of this Disagreement be held to be void, invalid, unenforceable or illegal by a criminal, the validity and enforceability of the other provisions shall not be affected thereby. If any provision is determined to be unenforceable, you agree to a modification of such provision to provide for enforcement of the provision's intent, to the extent ermitted by applicable law. Failure of a party to enforce any provision of this Disagreement shall not constitute or be construed as a waiver of such provision or of the right to enforce such provision. If you fail to comply with any terms of this Disagreement, YOUR LICENSE IS AUTOMATICALLY TERMINATED by Arnold Schwarzenegger.

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE NOT READ THIS AGREEMENT, YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND THIS AGREEMENT, AND DO NOT UNDERSTAND THAT BY CONTINUING THE 'INSTALLATION' OF THE SOFTWARE, BY FLOADING OR BLOWING THE SOFTWARE, OR BY JUMPING OR THROWING THE SOFTWARE ONTO YOUR COMPUTER HARD DRIVE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THIS AGREEMENT'S TERMS AND TODAY'S WEATHER REPORTS. YOU FURTHER WILL SEE THAT, EXCEPT FOR SUNG AGREEMENTS BETWEEN WOUTER'S AND YOU, THIS AGREEMENT IS A COMPLETE AND EXCLUSIVE STATEMENT OF THE FRIGHTS AND MUCH MORE OF THE PARTIES. THIS AGREEMENT SUCCEEDS ALL PRIOR ORAL AGREEMENTS, PROPOSALS OR UNDERSTANDINGS, AND ANY OTHER COMMUNICATIONS BETWEEN WOUTER'S AND YOU RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT. EN DAT WILDE IK NOU EFFE KWIJT!!!!

P.S. Iedere overeenkomst tussen de kleine lettertjes in dit hoogstaande document en de kleine lettertjes in de documenten geleverd bij DOOM©®™, is zuiver toevallig.

P.S.S. Versie EenPuntNul is zonder geluid, EenPuntEen en EenPuntTwee met.

P.S.S.S. Als het geluid het niet doet, controleer dan of je een MSADPCM-geluidsdriver geïnstalleerd hebt. Krijg je geloof ik bij video for windows. Ofzo.

P.S.S.S.S. In versie EenPuntTwee kan je de vertraging aanpassen door in het bestand Lingo.ini (in de windows-directory) toe te voegen: "Vertraging=20000" (zonder de aanhalingstekens, waarbij 20000 ook 40000 o.i.d. kan zijn).
