This program is shareware. You may use this demo copy for 15 days, after that it must be registered. See the included regqwk.wri for registration information. Registering entitles you to a fully operational version, and a key which will work on all future versions. WinQwk is guaranteed to do nothing more than fill up your hard drive. All reasonable amounts of testing have been done to ensure that WinQwk works well, be we can not guarantee anything. The unregistered version of WinQwk is fully functional, with one exceptions: Taglines. The unregistered version will show the following Tagline: * WinQwk 1.10 #0 * Unregistered Evaluation Copy The registered version will allow you to choose from different taglines for your messages and will remove the annoying please register-me screen. One additional option regarding Taglines is to NOT use Taglines. Taglines in FidoNet echoes contribute to the size of messages passed around internationally, and cost money. Excessive quoting also contributes to the size of messages. AnsiView.Exe AnsiView should be placed in the same directory as WinQwk.
