- Welcome to Merchant! the online space opera by Mike Marshburn. First off, I'd
- like to thank you for even DL'ing this file and reading the docs here - it's
- been (and continues to be) a lot of fun writing stuff other people use.
-
- Now on to the nitty gritty. I'd like to ask all of you to bear with me for a
- couple of things. First off, this program is SHAREWARE. That's right, you can
- use it for as long as you want, but if you want it to be fully functional you
- have to sent a measly $20 (which isn't much if you think about it) to:
- Mike Marshburn
- ATTN: Merchant!
- PO Box 7604
- Redlands, CA 92375-0604
-
- ***
- Note: The NEW registration fee for Merchant! is now $20, NOT $10 as it was.
- ***
-
- That will register your product with me and in return get you your own
- personal serial number so the program works entirely. Please use the enclosed
- order form when sending me the shareware fee. As soon as I receive your check
- I will send out your registration information to you.
-
- I don't expect people to send me any money unless they are truly excited
- about this product. I will attempt to keep the latest version on the Hermes
- support board so that people can check it out there. In addition, the latest
- version is always available on the Power User's Macintosh Association, my
- BBS. The number is: (909) 792-4902, 14.4k, Hermes II.
-
- ========----------- INSTRUCTIONS!! Read Carefully!! --------------========
- As of version v0.50b1 the following installation instructions are in effect:
- 1. Copy Merchant! v0.xxb1 into your Externals folder.
- 2. Go into Hermes, run Merchant!, init, quit, restart, and have fun!!!
- 3. Add about 600k of RAM to the Hermes GetInfo box.
- ========-----------------------------------------------------------========
-
- UPGRADE NOTE:
- If you are upgrading from a previous version of v0.47bx, then you DO NOT need
- to Re-Init the universe. Merchant! will now auto-detect a change in the files
- and automatically enter the Universe Initialization procedure if necessary! In
- other words, if Merchant! loads up fine after you first install it then there
- isn't a problem, but if it tells you that the version you're upgrading from has
- the older file sets then it will allow you to Init the Universe.
-
- Then just drop into the game and tell me what you think. I want to show up
- all those IBM people who think that TW2002 is the BEST online game ever. Well,
- we'll show them! <grin>.
-
- Remember, this program is SHAREWARE. I reserve all rights to it's code and
- it may not be sold in any form under any other name. I hope you all enjoy this
- because I sure as heck have a blast when I finally get a new command working!
