***********************************************************
MEMORY RESIDENT CD PLAYER
Registered users will an receive an unrestricted copy of CDtsr, a memory
resident CD player. This program allows DOS users, who are running text
based programs, to pop up a CD handset similar to that contained in
CDPlayer. This is very handy for pausing the CD to take a phone call,
carrying on with your current application and then resuming play by
popping up the handset a second time. Also for playing a new CD without
having to close down your current application.
A demonstration copy of CDTsr is included on this disk. Some of the
functions have been deactivated, however, it will enable you to see how
it will work with your applications.
***********************************************************

The registered programs are almost identical to the unregistered programs.
The shareware version has a 'nag' screen which is presented when the program
is first loaded.
