License: = Each purchaser has a limited simultaneous use license for the version and quanti= ty purchased. A student receiving

this software as part of an authorized workshop is considered to be a single person license purchaser.

Server/LAN Op= eration: Server/LAN use is completely acceptable given that the purchaser’s network administration limits

access to one simultaneous user for each software lice= nse purchased. The software reads information from the command

line (can be different for each user) to assist LAN operation. Add “ –cXXX” to the command line to store user-specific

configuration files into path XXX. Add “ –tYYY” for temporary file storage location as path YYY. Include= a space between

entries. Please see the HELP file in the software for = more command line examples.
