I have unfortunately discovered from my previous projects (most notably with DisKey), that users will only register the shareware which they don't use almost every day if they have no other choice -- by limiting the functionality of the freely distributable version.
This is the reason why the unregistered version of RDB-Salv has limited functionality.
As I like the idea of swapping one program for another, I'm offering to swap RDB-Salv for other good programs. However, the program must adhere to the Style Guide and proper programming practices as I only run clean software on my machine. Excessive use of Setfunction() is unacceptable! If in doubt, you can always ask me.
Those who cannot program might like to translate the catalogs and/or manuals to another language. I'll gladly reward you with a registered version. To prevent two (or more) people doing the same work at once, please advise me. I can be reached via email as Angela.Schmidt@stud.uni-karlsruhe.de.
Those who cannot directly contribute to RDB-Salv, and can't offer a useful contribution to my collection of programs can register in the traditonal way (with money). As I'm rather slow and lazy with snail mail, I've delegated these duties to my sister -- who's fast and reliable. ;-)
A normal registration will therefore cost 35 DM within Europe, including postage and packing. Express registration with delivery to the USA would cost 30+10+20+15=75 DM (Registration + Manual + postage + Express).
You can send a cheque within Germany; the preferred and safest method. Of course you can send cash at your own risk. If need be, the registration can also be done via C.O.D. (for an extra 8 DM).
You can also send a cheque from outside of Germany but please consider that this can present some difficulties and disproportionate costs (20 DM is not unusual). Please make sure that theres enough left over to pay your registration after all the additional costs have been paid -- otherwise your registration cannot be completed.
As foreign cheques often cause trouble, I prefer foreign registrations to be made using cash (preferably DM, or US Dollars of equivalent value).
Send your registration (in German, English or if need be, in French) to:
