How to Register
I am now using a shareware registration service run by Kee Nethery <kee@kagi.com>. The big advantage for you (and me) is that you can pay shareware fees with your credit card (VISA, MasterCard and American Express) via Email. This also makes it easier for people in other countries, since the currency conversions are handled automatically. Another advantage for me is that I can spend less time on administrative tasks and more time programming, as well as providing a permanent Email and Snail-mail address. If you are paranoid and concerned that this might be a clever forgery, feel free to mail me at owenc@minerva.cis.yale.edu (or one of the addresses above). If you are a shareware author interested in this system, email Kee.
To register my shareware applications, use the Register program or fill out the registration form that comes with the software (if you don’t have a registration form, fetch the latest version, or just make sure you include the program name and your Email address). Send the form together with your payment to:
Kagi Shareware
1442-A Walnut Street #392-CO
Berkeley, California, 94709-1405
USA
For credit card payments, send the form via Email to shareware@kagi.com or by FAX to +1 510 652 6589. Checks should be made out to “Kagi Shareware” and should be in US dollars. All comments about the programs should be sent directly to me.
