- LICENSE/REGISTRATION INFORMATION
-
- MicroCook is not, nor has ever been, public domain or free
- software. MicroCook is distributed as Shareware. Shareware is the
- best type of software, it's software you can try before you pay
- for it! Paying for Shareware is called "registering." If you
- bought a copy of this software through a disk vendor, paid to
- download the software from a BBS, or got a copy from a friend;
- you did NOT register it.
-
- The registered version of MicroCook may not be duplicated
- other than for backup purposes. A registered copy of MicroCook
- must be treated like a book, in that the same registered copy of
- MicroCook may not be used in more than one computer at the same
- time, just as a book cannot be handled and read by more than one
- person at the same time.
-
- When you register MicroCook, you are paying me for the time
- and effort that went into, and continues to go into developing
- MicroCook. It is also the ONLY legal way for you to continue
- using the program after the 30 days trial period.
-
- To register, type in REGISTER from the directory where all
- the MicroCook files are. This will execute a batch file which
- will print 2 sheets with the necessary information for
- registration of the MicroCook and the accompanying recipes. We
- hope you will register for both, but please register at least the
- part of this program package you will be using. See RECIPES.DOC
- for information about future addition of recipes and the upgrade
- program. See SWREG.DOC if you have CompuServe account and want to
- register MicroCook.
-
- Registered users of the MicroCook database program will
- receive at least one (1) free upgrade during the first year after
- registration, and unlimited technical support. But PLEASE only
- call between 6 and 9 PM CDT weekdays! Users that have questions
- during the evaluation period can contact me by mail, or on GEnie
- (TM) (GE Information Services) or CompuServe (TM). And of course,
- registered users can also contact me there.
-
- You are granted a limited license to use the Shareware
- version of MicroCook for a limited evaluation period of up to 30
- days, in order to determine if it suits your needs. Any other
- use of MicroCook or use past this period requires registration.
-

-
- You are granted a limited license to copy the Shareware
- version of MicroCook only for the purpose of allowing others to
- try it, subject to the above restrictions as well as these:
- MicroCook must be distributed in absolutely unmodified form,
- including ALL program, documentation, and other files.
-
- MicroCook may not be included with any other product for any
- reason whatsoever without a license from NORSKi Software.
- No charge or payment may be levied or accepted for MicroCook
- without written permission from NORSKi Software.
-
- Bulletin Board system operators may post the unregistered,
- Shareware Edition of MicroCook on their BBS for downloading by
- their users without written permission only if the above
- conditions are met, and only if no special fee is necessary to
- access the MicroCook files.
-
- Distributors of User Supported and Public Domain software
- can distribute MicroCook without permission from NORSKi Software,
- as long as only standard copying, shipping and handling fees are
- charged to the customer. But please notify NORSKi Software that
- you are distributing MicroCook, so I can supply you with the most
- recent version and upgrades.
-
- When you register you will receive a small "key file" with
- the serial number and your name. Place this file in the SAME
- directory as MCOOK.EXE. This file is for YOU only, and must NOT
- be distributed with any copies you give to your friends or upload
- to BBS's (which you are encouraged to do). The Key disables all
- the "Please Register!" messages and the time delayed opening and
- ending screens so the program will start running without delay.
- I added these "features" as reminders to unregistered users, not
- to harass them. The unregistered version and the registered
- version are identical in functions, except for these messages.
- Please keep a copy of the Key file in a safe place, since you
- have to pay a $5.00 S&H fee to get a new one.
- Also, registered users will receive an ASCII Editor for
- editing of ASCII recipe files in other formats than MicroCook's.
- This editor is NOT to be given away, uploaded to bulletin boards
- (BBS), or distributed in any way. Also included with the registered copy
- of MicroCook are over 2000 recipes, ready to be loaded into MicroCook.
- If you have a lot of recipes in other formats than Meal-Master that
- you would like to convert to MicroCook, please send me e-mail, call or
- write. Maybe I can help. I plan to add more conversions in the next
- version of MicroCook so I also would like to learn more about the
- different PC Cookbook formats that's in use.
- To print out the documentation included with MicroCook, type
- PRINTDOC from the directory where all the MicroCook files are
- located. This will execute a batch file that will print out the
- documents and the manual that's included with MicroCook. You can also
- print both the manual and registration form from the Print Menu in
- MicroCook. If you are printing to a continuous feed printer
- (DOT-Matrix), you should locate the first page perforation about 1 inch
- above where the print head is located. This will format the text better
- on the page.
- WINDOWS and OS/2 users, see the WINDOWS.DOC or OS2_HOW.DOC for
- installation information.
