WhizNotes(TM) <ASP>
Copyright (C) 1992-1994, Sanjay Kanade. All rights reserved.
PLEASE REGISTER TO SUPPORT THE AUTHOR
WhizNotes is a Shareware program. That means you are expected to pay a
registration fee to the author in order to continue using this
software beyond the initial trial period of thirty days. Remember, the
author is not compensated for his efforts if you do not register.
With your support, it is possible for the author to continue providing
enhancements for WhizNotes and to provide other quality software in
future at affordable prices.
What are the advantages of registering? If you have registered any
Shareware program before, then you know it already. Here is a list of
benefits:
HOW TO REGISTER
Please see the accompanying file 'ORDER.DOC' for pricing and ordering
information.
If you are not satisfied with WhizNotes registered Version for any
reason, you can return it within 30 days for a full refund.
REGISTRATION BENEFITS
- Legality: Your license to use the software without registration
expires after 30 days.
- Timeliness: You will receive the most recent version of WhizNotes.
- Support: Free support is included with your registration; please see
the support policy later in this topic.
- Updates: As a registered user you will get timely and frequent updates
by following a simple procedure. See details later in this topic.
- You will get a printed brochure that will point out the important
features of WhizNotes. You will also get a "data-bank" of
illuminating questions and answers on WhizNotes.
- The Shareware reminder screens are removed wherever they appear.
This gives you many advantages. You can double-click on a WZN file in
the File Manager or some other Shell and directly go to WhizNotes for
looking at the file. In the registered version, even if WhizNotes is
already running it will open the file for you.
- The message "This help file has been created with unregistered copy
of WhizNotes" will not appear when you generate help files with the
Registered Version. In other words, you get the license for unlimited
commercial usage of WhizNotes to generate help files. You also get the
license to distribute any WhizNote files that you create using
WhizNotes. Note that WhizNotes encodes various levels of information
into your help files so that a WhizNotes generated help can be
recognized for detecting unlicensed commercial usage of WhizNotes!
Also, once the above message is removed, the feature to use help
macros in topic attributes starts working.
- Some advanced topics have not been included in shareware help. The
reason is that they are likely to generate many queries from users,
and we can not afford to support them for shareware users. If you
register, you will get these advanced topics and will get support for
them. They are related to creating your own custom RTF macros and
customizing global options for help generation.
- You will get an add-on "data conversion tool" as a bonus that will
allow you to export the topics in non-help RTF format for use with
your favorite word processor. You can use all the WhizNotes formatting
commands that were originally meant for help users only. Also, help
users will get an easy way to convert their help to a printable
document.
FREE TECHNICAL SUPPORT FOR FIRST THREE MONTHS
For Registered users, technical support by phone will be provided for
by Advanced Support Group, Inc.
There is no charge for technical support for first three months for a
total connect time not exceeding 30 minutes. After that some charges
may apply. For details, please contact Advanced Support Group, Inc.
Unlimited technical support through electronic mail on Compuserve is
available, free of charge, to the registered users.
GET FREE UPDATES BY A UNIQUE SCHEME
Those of you who do not know the difference between an update and an
upgrade should note that an "update" is released only when "fixes for
major bugs" are made. With WhizNotes, users generate so many new ideas
that the updates are more likely to contain small enhancements rather
than bug fixes. Hence, we have come up with a unique scheme: updates
will be available as small patch files included with subsequent
shareware versions. The patches are also likely to be available as
separately downloadable small files on Compuserve and other BBSs.
This way you can get more frequent and timely updates at the low cost
(or no cost) of a shareware version. This will also help us maintain
WhizNotes at an affordable price for the users.
SPECIAL DISCOUNTS ON UPGRADES
As a registered user, you will continue to get subsequent major
versions of WhizNotes at special upgrade prices.
WHIZNOTES IS EVOLVING
If you find WhizNotes useful and register for it then you can take
pride in the fact that you are promoting the cause of Shareware.
Shareware means user can try the software before actually investing
money to buy it. Think of what the future means to you and thousands
of users like you. When you buy Shareware, it means that you really
care for the software and its usefulness. You don't care for the
shrink-wrapping or advertising that only tends to increase its cost.
I have received brilliant feedback and suggestions from the users, and
I am amazed at the variety of uses that people have found for this
program. There are many many enhancements on the waiting list, and you
can look forward to more and more useful features in future versions.
I have ambitious plans to improve WhizNotes. But again, all this is
not possible without your support. So if you like WhizNotes, please
register as soon as possible and participate in an exciting
development that has evolved based on the needs of users like you.
