SUDS version 2.2 (see file SUDS22.EXE) and SUDSW version 2.2 (see file SUDW22.EXE) may be registered ONLINE through Compu-Serve. The fee is automatically billed to your Compuserve account! To register either product, type GO SWREG and select option 1 to register software. To register DOS version of SUDS: Select registration id number 669 (or search on keyword SUDS). Follow instructions. In either case, your CompuServe account will automatically be billed the current registration fee ($20 in either case). NOTE - If you are upgrading or taking advantage of the $5 discount for including a recipe you cannot use online registration and should register by mail: Michael C. Taylor 1626 Main Street Bethlehem, PA 18018-1905 To get started, make sure that you have the following files from your distribution disk: SUDS.EXE - SUDS program file SUDSCVT.EXE - Conversion utility to upgrade from prior versions SUDSHELP.HLP - On-line Help file for SUDS SUDSHST.DAT - SUDS Pick-list data file SUDS.DOC - Documentation file for SUDS README.TXT - Short introduction to SUDS release REGISTER.TXT - SUDS registration form RECIPES.SXF - "Starter" set of recipes to import into SUDS. NOTE - Prior users of SUDS v 1.2 and earlier or SUDW 1.0, MUST run the SUDSCVT utility to change the SUDSLOG DBF and DBT files for the new release. These files are renamed to OLDLOG.DBF and OLDLOG.DBT. After successfully running utility, these files may be erased. NOTE - If you are already a registered user of SUDS (meaning you've PAID your registration fee already!), this upgrade is FREE. Suds is distributed under the shareware concept which allows you to sample Suds for a 30 day period after which the registration fee must be paid. This package is not crippled or disabled in any way. As long as honesty prevails, these measures will not be necessary. All I ask is that you register the program if you continue to use it beyond the 30 day trial period. The current registration fee for SUDS 2.2 is $20. If you include a beer recipe of your own to be included in the next release(s) of Suds you may register your copy for only $15. This offer is valid until 12/31/94. Your name will, of course, be included on your recipe! With your paid registration you will receive the following: o SUDSCM utility to add 415 recipes from Internet Cat's Meow recipe publication. o Copy of Cat's Meow II recipe text file o IBUCALC command line utility to calculate Hop IBUs. Please read at least the Introduction and Installation portions of the documentation (SUDS.DOC). You are free to share copies of the complete SUDS package with anyone you choose. That's how shareware works! They, of course, must also abide by the terms above. Feel free to drop me any comments or suggestions on the program via Compu-Serve, or by mail. I also frequent the WINE/BEER forum on Compu-Serve and you may leave messages there as well. Happy Brewing!
