- ShopList 1.11
-
- By Hugh Matthews, January 1997
-
-
- ShopList is designed to make the process of shopping for groceries
- simpler. As well as managing your shopping list, it provides a pick list
- of regularly-purchased items, keeps track of prices, and learns the aisle
- layout of your supermarket. ShopList can even automatically add items
- which you purchase regularly to the shopping list.The list is subdivided
- into categories. Each item belongs to a category, and contains the price,
- quantity, store and aisle from the last time it was purchased.
-
- ShopList runs on the Psion S3A and S3C computers (all memory sizes,
- tested on UK and US versions). It will not run on the S3 or Siena.

- Installation
-
- Copy SLIST.OPA into any \APP directory. Create \APP\SLIST on the same
- disk and copy into it SLISTHLP.RSC (the help file), SLISTCHK.OPO
- (file check/repair routines) and SLISTUPG.OPO (file format upgrade).
- SLISTHLP.RSC and SLISTCHK.OPO are both optional and can be omitted
- to save space if desired. SLISTUPG.OPO can be deleted once all files
- from previous versions have been opened for the first time. Install
- SLIST.OPA from the system screen using Psion-I. When ShopList is
- first run, it will create a directory \LST on your internal disk in
- which it stores list files. If you are upgrading from a previous
- version it is strongly recommended that you make a backup of your
- list files before first opening/upgrading them using the new version.
- The contents of the help file are also contained in MANUAL.TXT in
- plain ASCII format.
-
- ShopList is provided "as is" with no warranties express or implied.
-
-
- Registration
-
- Shoplist is shareware. The evaluation version is fully functional but
- will only allow 20 items to be included on the shopping list. It also
- contains nag screens which appear when you start and exit the program,
- and also on the completion of each shopping trip. To remove these
- restrictions you need to enter a registration code. To obtain your
- personalized registration code, and support the shareware concept,
- send 10 UKP, 15 dollars, or local equivalent to:
-
- Dr H.R. Matthews,
- St John's College,
- Cambridge CB2 1TP,
- UK
-
- stating your name and EMail address. Your registration code will be
- returned by EMail.
-
-
- Legal stuff
-
- You have the right to evaluate the program for the intended purpose for
- 21 days from the date of first installation. After that time you must
- register it. You may not reverse translate, reverse engineer or modify
- the program in any way. You may distribute the program provided that you
- keep all supplied files together and do not charge anything for it. YOU
- MAY NOT DISTRIBUTE THE REGISTRATION CODE which you receive upon
- registration. Although the program has been carefully tested, I can not
- guarantee that it will work as desired, and can accept no responsibility
- for damage or data loss resulting from the use of the program.
