HELLO!
Thank you for trying the shareware version of LottoProf. We're sure
you will like it. No other lottery program helps you play to win like
LottoProf!

Depending on distribution, these files may be compressed into one

files are missing or defective simply return the distribution
diskette to the author for immediate replacement:

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS:
- IBM PC compatible with 640 Kb memory
- MS-DOS version 3.0 or greater
- EGA or VGA graphics
- a hard disk is recommended (about 320 Kb of space required)
- a printer is recommended but not required
- an HP LaserJet compatible printer is needed to print bet slips
GAME RESTRICTIONS:
- any pick-5 lotto game up to 5/60 with no bonus number
- any pick-6 lotto game up to 6/60 with or without a bonus number
INSTALLATION:
Installation is simple. Insert the distribution diskette into your disk
drive. Let's say it is drive a:. Then at the DOS prompt, this sequence
of commands will do the trick.
cd \
md lotoprof
cd lotoprof
copy a:*.*
If you downloaded from a BBS then you will most likely need to decompress
the files as such:
pkunzip lotoprof.zip
from the directory where you placed the file.
THIS VERSION:
This is the shareware version of LottoProf and is identical to the
commercial version (version 3.01 as of January 1 1993). Not one
feature has been removed, not one function debilitated. There is
no expiry date, no limit on the number of program runs. There are
no pestering messages, no annoying delays, no locks of any kind.
Just the best lottery program around.
When you register your version you will receive:
- the printed User's Guide
- Special Report: The Truth About Lottery Busters
- the most recent program version
- over 180 of the most popular wheeling systems
- analysis results of the above wheeling systems
- the winning numbers of your lottery (see the list)
- a Special Offer (see below)
- the very best advice on how to play the lottery!
If it could be done, the User's Guide would be included in this
Shareware edition. Alas, there are too many graphs, too many
screen snapshots, too many different fonts -- a plain text manual
just cannot do justice. Instead, a few words of orientation. Remember
that help is always available in the program by pressing the F1 key.
ABOUT SHAREWARE:
"Shareware" describes a system for distribution of software. Under
the shareware concept, software may be freely copied, shared with others,
distributed through bulletin board systems, etc.
With shareware, you may use the software for a short trial period to
determine if it meets your needs. If it does, you pay the registration
fee. By paying the fee, you are granted the right to retain the software
for your use. If the software is not suitable then you may discard it or
pass it along to others.
The shareware system provides substantial benefits:
1) You get to try out the software BEFORE you uy it so you know
exactly what you're buying.
2) Shareware is substantially less expensive than most commercial
programs. You don't pay for costly marketing programs and
fancy packaging.
3) You get access to a MUCH broader base of available programs.
Thousands of excellent programs have been written by expert
programmers who would never consider marketing commercially.
The system is based entirely on the honor system, and generally works
quite well. Shareware is NOT free software - the author counts on your
honesty. Please register using the form at the end of this document.
SPECIAL OFFER FOR LASERJET OWNERS:
Send a dozen or so of your lottery's bet slips with your order and
you'll receive a custom Ticket Definition File. This will allow you
to print bet slips directly! No muss, no fuss, no more mistakes.
FINALLY:
Remember this is Shareware -- so pass this disk around. Share it
with other lotto players. And by all means, write. Tell us how you
use LottoProf to win the Big One!
