- <h2>Learning more</h2>
- <p>Beyond the sequence of examples provided here, the Logisim source code
- provides copious additional examples, though they do not always illustrate
- the same attention to readability and good design.</p>
- <p>For maximum portability to future versions, you should stick as much
- as possible to the classes in the ...<code>instance</code>, ...<code>data</code>,
- and ...<code>tools</code> packages. Of course, you may use other packages'
- APIs, but they are more vulnerable to changes in future versions of Logisim.</p>
- <p>I am generally willing to answer occasional requests for help. And bug
- reports and suggestions for improvements, of course, are always welcome.</p>
- <h2>Distribution</h2>
- <p>You are free to distribute any JARs you develop without restriction.
- The GPL restrictions do apply, however, if portions of your work are
- derived from portions of Logisim source code (released under the GPL).
- Deriving from the example code in this section of the <em>User's Guide</em>
- does not incur such restrictions; these examples are released under the
- MIT license.</p>
- <p>If you would like to share your library with other Logisim users,
- I will be happy to provide a link to a hosting Web page or the
- JAR file itself through the Logisim Web site. If you think your library
- should be built into the basic Logisim release, then I welcome your
- suggestion, and I'll be happy to acknowledge your contribution in
- Logisim releases including the work.</p>
