CHECKSUM
February 7, 1990
CHECKSUM is another release from RIVERSOFT. It is not and has never been
free. This product is released under the shareware concept and may be
evaluated for a period of two weeks. After which it must either removed
from your computer or registered.
Registration is only $15.00 for this product and intitles you to free
future updates and support. As with all RIVERSOFT products you may have
this product customized for a very small fee. However we will customize the
Print Check feature of this program (one time) at no charge. To recieve a
customized version just enclose 3 VOIDED FORM FEED CHECKS with the tractor
feed strips still attached!. The checks MUST be designed to run on an 80
column printer and accept EPSON control charactors.
WARRANTY
RIVERSOFT warrants the registered disks to free of defects for a period of
120 days from the date of registration. RIVERSOFT makes no warranty either
actual or implied, as to the suitability of this product for any use. We
assume no responsibility, other than the replacement of defective disks,
whether for actual or consequential damages.
Now that we have the legal garbage out of the way let's get on to running
CHECKSUM.
SETUP and INSTALLATION
To run this program you must have at least 512k of ram, a hard disk and one
floppy drive, or 2 720k floppy disks. In all honesty a hard disk is
the way to go with this one. I have hear of someone running this program on
a 2 360k floppy system. He says he copied the program and data files to
drive b: and put the .exe file on drive a: then started the program with a
batch file located in drive a: that looked like this:
A>prun b:\check
In any event those are the hardware requirements other than if you have a
monochrome moniter with a CGA card you may have some problems with some of
the colors. If so let me know and I'll see what I can do to fix it.
To run this program you will also need to have you config.sys file have the
following statements included:
FILES=30
BUFFERS=20
If you don't know how to change the config.sys file consult your DOS manual.
Installation of this program is a snap. Just copy all the files to a
directory that you name then type in CHECK and press return.
The program is simple enough to run from the menus and help windows that you
should have no problem.
You may copy this program and share it with others as long as ALL the files
are included!! If you are a (disk vendor) you may collect a small fee for
distribution as long as it is less than $10.00. This program MUST be
distributed as SHAREWARE, that is to say it is not FREE. Continued use
requires REGISTRATION. Registrations provide the means for you the user to
continue to enjoy the SHAREWARE concept. The process that brings software to
the shareware market place is outstanding but for the system to work
SHAREWARE authors need to see something for their work and expense. Most of
the shareware authors I know use their registrations to upgrade programing
languages and purchase hardware. For the most part there are very few who
"get rich".
In any event it is my sincere hope you enjoy this program if so, or if not
PLEASE let me know. I apprieciate ALL comments positive or otherwise.
later...
