Registration:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Fill out the Register.eng and send unto the given address
- The program is Cardware i.e.. you may use and copy it free, but if you
use it away 30 day, then fill the registration form and send it.
(via E-Mail, or through modem or in letter)!
- Why the registration is needed?
Because I want know that, who use the FiD. That is interest me that need
update in the future to you...
Remarks:
~~~~~~~~
- To use RAR,UC and Codec switch on the /M switch!
- At one time FID read only 2900 file in a directory!
- In the filelist, when you switch on the /I , read until 5000 files!
- If you have any comments by the program, you have new idea or found
bugs then call me: (+361)189-7745 !
- If you tape ESC during the process then you stop it!
- There are after the musics the number of the patterns.
- In the same FiD read only the first two Byte of the file therefore
happens incorrect indentification (e.g.:if the file begin II (TIFF)).
- The /Z switch is looking that the detail is in the comment, also if you
type "a" in the fid.kil then erase the most lines included "a" char.
