According to the homepage (http://www.geogr.ku.dk/chips/WinChips.htm)
this is not Free Software. You have to obtain a gratis single user 
licence.

Please make sure that your suggestion is not simply gratis but fulfills
the criteria for Free Software as defined by the Free Software
Foundation (http://www.fsf.org/philosophy/free-sw.html). Read more
