                         Registering The Star Commander

  If you wish to, you can register online at "http://sta.c64.org/screg.html".

  The Star Commander is giftware. You may use the unregistered version as long
as you wish, it is in no way crippled, there are no nag screens or  delays  in
it and it won't refuse to run even years after  the  installation.  It  is  my
personal will not to put any of these restrictions into the Commander  because
I don't like such "features"  in shareware programs either.  However,  if  you
appreciate the years of work it took  to  create  the  Commander  then  you're
encouraged to register it. My main reason for this is to get some  information
about the people using the Commander all over the  world  when  they  register
but, of course, getting some money won't hurt either.

  There are only two things that may annoy you when using an unregistered copy
of the Commander: first, when you start it, you'll see three extra lines below
the title, asking you to register; second, there is  a  similar  sign  in  the
uppermost lines of the 'About the Commander' section of the online help.

  Please, cut and fill in the registration form below. As a registration text,
you can type a maximum  of  50  characters  that  will  be  displayed  in  the
Commander. Indicate if you want your name to be put to the list of  registered
users below and whether you would like to see the amount of money you paid for
the Commander there or not.

  When you're done, send the form to me in an E-mail. Soon you will receive  a
reply containing a uuencoded keyfile that registers your copy. If you have  no
access to the Internet but you're living in Hungary then print  the  form  out
and send it to me in a snail-mail along with a formatted  disk  and  a  return
envelope with stamps and your address on it - I'm sorry, but I can do  nothing
with non-Hungarian stamps. When registering, you don't have to send any money,
only if you want: this is what "giftware" is  about.  10 USD,  10 EUR  or  the
equivalent in your own currency (the proposed fee for Hungarians is only  1000
HUF) would be quite satisfying but you can send me more or less - it's  up  to
you to decide how much the Commander is worth for you.

  You can send the money by cash in a snail-mail to  me.  Please,  don't  send
Eurocheques or coins, I can't change them to cash. Don't send personal  checks
or money orders either because they involve high conversion costs for  me,  if
my bank accepts them at all. My home address is the following:

  Kovcs Balzs
  Orsolya u. 5. IV/12.
  1204 Budapest
  Hungary

  If you register the Commander, the keyfile you get  will  make  those  three
annoying lines disappear  forever.  If  you  enter  the  'About the Commander'
section of the online help, you  will  see "This copy of The Star Commander is
registered to: <registration text>" in the uppermost lines.  If  you  have  an
E-mail address, you'll also be put onto the announcement list so that you  get
a notification about new versions before the  release  day.  If  you  have  no
access to the Internet but you're living in Hungary then you  can  send  me  a
formatted disk and an envelope with stamps and your address on it any time  to
get the latest release. You will always remain a registered user, the  keyfile
will be valid with all future releases. Your name is optionally  going  to  be
added to the list of registered users at the end of this file so that everyone
sees you've already done the right thing.

  As a registered user you won't get other extras because I  can't  offer  you
more: the registered version doesn't have new features over  the  unregistered
version and if you have problems, I'll try to help you independently  of  your
being a registered user or not. However, by registering,  you  can  make  sure
you've made your  moral  (and,  optionally,  your  monetary)  contribution  to
further development.

  Please, don't distribute your personal keyfile when  anyone  else  can  also
register the Commander for free. Thank you!
