To start up Backup, double click on the !Backup icon in a directory display. A large window will appear which urges you to register with the author. After you have read the text in this window, click on Continue to load Backup. After a short pause the icon will appear on the iconbar with the word 'Ready' underneath it. This signals that Backup is waiting for you to tell it to do something. If you click Menu over the iconbar icon, a short menu will appear.
It also displays the version and serial numbers, which should be quoted in all correspondence with the author. The 'This program is Shareware' icon is actually a button, which, when clicked on, opens a text file giving details on how to register. It is essentially the same as the How To Register section in this manual.
