- ===== Information for Users ("READ-ME") ================
-
- This package contains the recipe management program, MicroCook, by
- NORSKi Software. This document contains only a brief description of the
- package and its features, along with instructions for its installation.
- Quite detailed documentation is included in the package, but it is in
- archived form, and is more easily read after installation.
-
- MicroCook is a shareware program. This evaluation version includes all
- features of the program, and is not crippled in any way. You may use it
- for up to 30 days, without charge (see READ1ST.TXT for more details). If
- you like the program, and wish to continue its use after this evaluation
- period, you are required to pay for the program (see REGISTER.FRM for
- more details). Any fee you may have paid to others (disk vendors,
- dealers, etc.) to obtain this evaluation version was a fee for their
- copying and distribution services, rather than a payment for continued
- use of the program.

- ===== Installation =====================================
-
- To register, type in REGISTER from the directory where all the MicroCook
- files are. This will execute a batch file which will print 1 sheet with
- the necessary information for registration of the MicroCook. You can
- also print the registration form for MicroCook from the Print Menu in
- MicroCook.
- 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. Also included with the registered version are over
- 2,200 free recipes.
- 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.
- To print out the documentation included with MicroCook, use the File
- Manager from the Tool menu in MicroCook. There you can select any of the
- TXT files that are included with MicroCook, and both read and print them.
- To print the manual, select "Manual" under the Print Menu in MicroCook.
- This will format the manual better. 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.

- 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 thirty days trial period.
-
- NORSKi Software grants you a limited license to use this software for
- evaluation purposes for a period not to exceed thirty days. If you
- continue using this software after the thirty-day evaluation period,
