- {You can also add a BBS Name or a City or anything else you want. just keep on
- adding it to the I Var in the MakeRegCode proc. to check to see if a reg code
- is valid, just Compare the registration code he already has (in a cfg File
- comewhere I assume) With the one generated this part of code. if they match,
- then is is a good code... if not... then he didn't register.
