- *******************************************************
- The author of lottery 1.2 makes no claims that his
- program will win you any money although it has won about
- รบ20 so far. The author can not guarantee any future
- upgrades of the program either. He [P.K.Spencer of
- Aylesbury] will accept no responsibility for any damage
- which occurs to either you or your system whilst using
- the program! You have the authors permission to freely
- distribute the ZIP file AS LONG AS ALL THE CONTENTS
- REMAIN AS IN THE ORIGINAL.

- Right, now all the disclaiming stuff is out of the way
- lets get down to it :-)

- This ZIP file should contain the following:

- Installation
- ************
- The program comes in 2 forms, OPA and OPO. If you wish
- to set up the program with its own icon then put the OPA
- file in any directory (on any disk), preferably \app,
- and use Psion-I from the system screen to install it. If
- you're not bothered about an icon then delete the OPA
- file and put the OPO file in a \opo directory and it'll
- appear under the RunOPL icon.

- About the Prog
- **************
- I wrote this prog because I wanted to have a random
- number generator for my Psion which I could use for the
- National Lottery (I have no connection to Camelot its
- organisers). The program won't duplicate no.s and is
- very simple and effective. I had not found any such
- programs on the archives so I wrote my own!

- P.K.Spencer is a 15 year old from Aylesbury. He has
- very little OPL experience and is learning to write
- programs. This is his first attempt. The Prog appears
- to have no bugs but if you find any or have any
- comments/suggestions for future versions then I welcome
- your input either by:
-

- Registering
- ***********
- Lottery 1.2 is distributed as Shareware. To register
- the program send 4 UKP to the above address with either
- your E-Mail address so I can mail the code to you or
- with a an SAE. When registered I'll send you a code to
- disable the nag screens, pauses, etc and you will be
- entitled to any future upgrades FREE. You also get a
- direct say in any future developments and more
- importantly a clear mind. 4 UKP isn't a lot to register
- and it'll help me develop future versions (and other
- programs). I don't have much time free as I'm doing my
- GCSE's so I need an incentive :-)
