Lottry 1.2 is a Shareware Lottery Predictor written in OPL for the Psion 3a or the Acorn Pocket Book 2 ONLY. ******************************************************* The author of lottery 1.2 makes no claims that his program will win you any money although it has won about £20 so far. The author can not guarantee any future upgrades of the program either. He [P.K.Spencer of Aylesbury] will accept no responsibility for any damage which occurs to either you or your system whilst using the program! You have the authors permission to freely distribute the ZIP file AS LONG AS ALL THE CONTENTS REMAIN AS IN THE ORIGINAL. ****************************************************** Right, now all the disclaiming stuff is out of the way lets get down to it :-) Contents *********** This ZIP file should contain the following: Readme.txt (this file) Lottry12.opa (5926) Lottry12.opo (5278) Installation ************ The program comes in 2 forms, OPA and OPO. If you wish to set up the program with its own icon then put the OPA file in any directory (on any disk), preferably \app, and use Psion-I from the system screen to install it. If you're not bothered about an icon then delete the OPA file and put the OPO file in a \opo directory and it'll appear under the RunOPL icon. About the Prog ************** I wrote this prog because I wanted to have a random number generator for my Psion which I could use for the National Lottery (I have no connection to Camelot its organisers). The program won't duplicate no.s and is very simple and effective. I had not found any such programs on the archives so I wrote my own! About the Author **************** P.K.Spencer is a 15 year old from Aylesbury. He has very little OPL experience and is learning to write programs. This is his first attempt. The Prog appears to have no bugs but if you find any or have any comments/suggestions for future versions then I welcome your input either by: E-Mail on nicko@nildram.co.uk OR at 10 Prebendal Court Oxford Road Aylesbury Bucks HP19 3EY Registering *********** Lottery 1.2 is distributed as Shareware. To register the program send 4 UKP to the above address with either your E-Mail address so I can mail the code to you or with a an SAE. When registered I'll send you a code to disable the nag screens, pauses, etc and you will be entitled to any future upgrades FREE. You also get a direct say in any future developments and more importantly a clear mind. 4 UKP isn't a lot to register and it'll help me develop future versions (and other programs). I don't have much time free as I'm doing my GCSE's so I need an incentive :-) Updates from v1.0a (previous release) ******************************************* -All new interface, it is now a graphics window and not a dialog box -Improved menu system -Better insurance against duplicates and no.s below 1 or above 49 -Statuswindow added -Online help added Updates from v1.1 ****************** -Ability for user to enter a code to register, not send off for a whole new program -Even better randomisation of numbers -Adding protection against those unscrupulous Revtran users that might have hacked my program :-) v1.2 31/03/96 P.K.Spencer
