Association of Shareware Professionals (ASP)
--------------------------------------------

This program is produced by a member of the Association of Shareware Professionals (ASP). ASP wants to make sure that the shareware principle works for you. If you are unable to resolve a shareware-related problem with an ASP member by contacting the member directly, ASP may be able to help. The ASP Ombudsman can help you resolve a dispute or technical problem with an ASP member, but does not provide technical support for members' products. Please contact the ASP Ombudsman online at http://www.asp-shareware.com/omb .

Operating System
----------------

MUSHclient version 3.xx will run on: 

Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows NT 4, Windows NT 2000 and Windows XP.

It will not run on Windows 3.1 or Windows 3.11, sorry! This is because the enhancements in version 3.x use various 32-bit features of the more recent Windows operating systems. If you wish to continue using Windows 3.1, then MUSHclient 1.04 is still a very fast, reliable MUD client.

Compatibility with old world files
----------------------------------

MUSHclient version 3 will read world (and trigger, alias etc.) files produced by earlier versions. However, earlier versions will *not* read files produced by this version. You are advised to backup your world and other files, in case you wish to go back to an earlier version. 


Registration
------------

This version incorporates a small delay at program start-up for unregistered copies. If you find this annoying, my apologies! The delay screen is eliminated if you register. 

The spell-checker is limited to reporting 10 spelling errors for unregistered copies.

You can now register online using a secure, automated web server. As soon as you have provided your payment details a registration code will be sent to you.

Thanks to everyone who has supported MUSHclient, either by registering or by sending in comments. Your support is appreciated. If you have not yet registered, I will certainly appreciate receiving your ShareWare fee. If you send a registration fee you will encourage me to make future enhancements to MUSHclient.


Thanks again. I hope you enjoy using MUSHclient, as much as I have writing it.
