The manual (unfortunately) is seriously out of date and dates from before-Lego-ware-days. But for what it's worth:

As of October 2008 Krokodove is distributed under a license referred to as Lego-ware. In short, if you appreciate using the tools, you send some Lego to the address below

Please mark it as a free gift with no commercial value, to avoid us needing to pay import taxes and such.

A small box of lego entitles you to use Krokodove for 1 year. A bigger box... longer :-)

This license applies only to Krokodove versions currently available. Komkom Doorn is entitled to release new versions of Krokodove or related software under a different licence at some point in the future.

In 1999 Krokodove started out as a set of tools I wrote to compensate for some of Fusions limitations. However limited they were, I figured they might be useful to others. So I decided to make them available for everyone free of charge.

The toolset grew and people seemed to appreciate them. After a while I thought I might as well ask "something" in return and Krokodove became DVD-ware. As a token of their appreciation, users could send me a DVD of their choice. This left me with a collection of hundreds of DVDs.

The toolset grew even more and started taking up more of my time, so I turned them into a commercial package. Together with the commercial aspect more requests for different types of licensing schemes arose: floating, site, time limited, tool limited... I slowly started working on a new licensing scheme. And though I love programming, it especially fascinates me when it brings on some kind of visual result. Unfortunately "licensing" brings hardly any at all. So the new scheme kept dragging on.

In October 2008 I therefore decided to make Krokodove again available to everyone free of charge. Free to use, free to put on as many machines you like. But just as in the early days, if you feel the need to express your appreciation for the toolset, and want to show it, you can now send in Lego.

(Beside the dozens of tools added to Krokodove, the last 10 years also brought me 2 lovely daughters...)

This is not part of Krokodove (but resides here by lack of better home for now).

A free and open source plugin for Fusion which creates weird and wonderful (pseudo) three-dimensional fractals. The plug-in is based on the original source code by Scott Draves (1993) and Andre B. Davidson (1999). It's open source, it's free, ... and it can be terribly slow and beautiful. What more do you want?
