=============== Smoke Free Zone =============== If you are running the shareware version of this application, it will time out after 30 days. A full version, as well as other applications by the same author can be purchased at www.palmgear.com. If you are running the full release version please do not distribute it further. This application, SmokeFreeZone, is a helper for people attempting to quit smoking. To help accomplish this goal the application calculates information to help motivate the person. The information is: * the number of cigarettes not smoked * the money saved * life added by not smoking * total days quit The life added is calculated using a value of 5 minutes per cigarette not smoked. There is no accurate value for this, and estimates range between 5 and 20 minutes, hence the application uses the lowest estimate. To accurately calculate the number of cigarettes not smoked, the time and date when smoking stopped, plus the hours the person is awake during the day is entered allowing an accurate value to be calculated. This means that whenever the application is viewed it should display a reasonably accurate number of cigarettes not smoked as the day passed. These values are saved so they only have to be entered once. There is a vast amount of information available of quitting smoking on the World Wide Web, so if you are running low on information or want some additional encouragement here as some good web sites to visit: * http://www.quitsmokingsupport.com/ * http://nicotine-anonymous.org/ * http://www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk/ There is also a news group on this topic: * alt.quit.smoking.support This application was written by Darren Franklin, and can be contacted at: darrenfranklin@yahoo.com.
