- ===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================
-
- The I Ching, or Book of Changes, one of the classics of Chinese
- literature, is a book of divinations originating in antiquity. Its
- poetic messages are used for both fortune-telling and their insight into
- humanity's role in the natural world. By tossing coins or sticks, you
- create a pattern of six lines to form a hexagram for interpretation. The
- "yin and yang" philosophy of the I Ching is ideally suited to the "yes
- and no" or "0 and 1" mentality of the computer and its ability to
- generate number patterns. Select the traditional yarrow-stick method,
- coin-toss, Computer's Choice, or build your own. You can edit the text
- for each hexagram, so that the readings can incorporate your favorite
- translation and commentaries. You can also add your own comments
- separately from the regular text, and choose whether or not to include
- them in the readings. Readings can be printed, or saved on disk for
- reference and editing.
-
- This is a shareware program. This evaluation version includes all
- features of the program, and is not crippled in any way. You may use it
- for up to 30 days, without charge (see INFO.TXT for more details).
- If you like the program, and wish to continue its use after this
- evaluation period, you are required to pay for the program (see
- REGISTER.TXT for more details). Any fee you may have paid to others
- (disk vendors, dealers, etc.) to obtain this evaluation version was a
- fee for their copying and distribution services, rather than a payment
- for continued use of the program.
