Welcome to LaunchCAD 3.1! If you have ever fumbled around at the AutoCAD opening menu trying to remember the drawing file name that you want to edit or plot; or are disgusted with the arcane user interface of the opening menu, then LaunchCAD is for you. This program provides with a "user friendly" replacement to the AutoCAD opening menu (and something extra). This program is shareware. Many hours of work have gone into it's development. Please give it a try, and pass a copy along to your friends, or upload it to your favorite bulletin board. If you continue to use this program after an initial trial period (14 days or so) then you must register. Registration is simple, just fill out the enclosed form (see REGISTER.DOC) and mail to the author. The cost is $20 to register only, or $30 for the latest version on disk. We will provide instructions to remove the opening delay screen to registered users. 1.
