         After your 30-day evaluation period, you are urged to consider
         registering Coeli. There are many benefits, not least of which
         will be a sensation of warm altruism accompanied by a clear
         conscience.

         The shareware release you have received is not 'crippled' or
         time-limited; it's similar in most respects to the current
         registered version.

         What sets fully registered copies apart is:

         1) Sky Quiz(TM)
         2) Total customization to your location and preferences
         3) complete absence of reminder screens
         4) the capacity to load the entire first-level database of
            over 9000 stars
         5) added comets
         6) the complete Messier Catalog in ImageIcons
         7) Lifetime support by mail or e-mail
         8) Unlimited *free* Coeli updates by request
         9) Automatic eligibility for special offers and add-ons


         In return for your registration* Swimming Elk Software will
         send you a personal (dedicated) copy of the latest version of
         Coeli pre-programmed with your name, home location and startup
         preferences. It will arrive complete with the integral Sky
         Quiz. Thenceforth, you will be advised of major Coeli updates
         and be uniquely eligible for our exclusive offers. You may
         also contact us by mail or E-mail at any time after
         registration with problems and queries concerning the inner
         workings of Coeli.

         Swimming Elk Software welcomes any pre-registration enquiries
         you might have, even if their sole motive is to confirm to
         yourself that we actually exist. A simple postcard or e-mail
         with your name and address will suffice to get you a
         reassuring reply.

         We undertake to answer ALL Coeli-related correspondence, whether
         it concerns registration or not.

                           Payment Alternatives
                          ----------------------

         * Registering Coeli costs 20 pounds sterling (U$34).

         Payment might be in the form of a sterling cheque drawn on a
         UK bank (made out to R.Hughes), any major credit card,
         International Postal Money Order, even a personal check or
         cash at the present exchange rate in your own hard currency.

         Regrettably, we must charge a handling fee IF payment is
         non-sterling currency or IMO, bringing the total to $36 U.S.
         at the current exchange in whatever other tender you decide to
         send.

         If paying by PERSONAL CHECK, as opposed to banker's check, in
         non-sterling currency, please add a further $3 U.S., bringing
         the total to $39 U.S. It costs us more in bank charges to
         handle these items.

         This also applies to orders by CREDIT CARD via PsL or
         Share-It! (see below for details)

         A further alternative is 140 Finnish marks, to which handling
         need not be added if payment is in cash or any cheque drawn is
         on a Finnish bank.

         If you wish to make an electronic transfer of funds (hard
         currency), please take note of the following account details:

         Swimming Elk Software either electronically or through the
         post.



                      **********************************
                      NOW YOU CAN REGISTER COELI ONLINE!
                      **********************************

         For secure, no fuss, Internet registration via credit card,
         just point your Web browser at one of the links at the foot of
         this document.


         Why should I register?

         Because Swimming Elk Software is waiting to send you a
         dedicated copy of Coeli hard-coded with your name, home
         location and startup preferences. Now Coeli can be with you
         within 24 hours complete with the integral Sky Quiz (TM). Your
         registered copy will be equipped to load the entire
         first-level database of over 9000 stars along with an
         extensive inventory of DSOs, images, and commentary. You will
         be advised of major Coeli updates and be uniquely eligible for
         our exclusive offers. You may also contact us by mail or
         E-mail at any time after registration with just about any
         problem or query relating to Coeli.


         How do I start?

         If you haven't already done so, please print out a regular
         Coeli registration form by pressing [r] from within the
         program. A copy will be saved with the filename REGISTER.FRM
         in the folder or directory you reserved for Coeli.

         On the form you will notice a line beginning 'Your ref' and
         followed by an ident code. This code is your unique personal
         reference and you will be required to enter or paste it into
         your online customization form in your Web browser. It is your
         order's most important component bar E-mail address and credit
         card!

         When you are ready and have the information to hand, please
         set aside a few minutes to fill out your online customization
         form, and submit it to us. If you have difficulties getting
         your Web browser to mail us, a simple remedy is to attach a
         copy of the file REGISTER.FRM using your regular E-mail
         software, or just paste it into the body of the message.

         As soon as we receive the form, we will get to work
         personalizing your very own unique copy of Coeli, which we
         will then either send on 3.5" diskette or E-mail to you
         straight away as a MIME attachment. Don't forget to complete
         the section of the form which tells us which of these
         alternatives you prefer to take.

         We estimate an average of 72 hours for the first option
         (postal), 36 hours for the second (E-mail).



         Confused?

         Essentially, registering Coeli online is a two-stage process:

         1) Filling out your customization form online (optional)

         2) Ordering online with your credit card

         The two stages are entirely separate, the customization
         handled by us at Swimming Elk Software, and your credit card
         order by either Share-It! or PsL with their secure submission
         facilities. These are our agents for handling all online
         registrations, and they will inform us electronically of your
         order immediately they receive it, so that we can process and
         despatch your Coeli package without delay.


         *Surcharges apply.

         Aside from the possible handling fee, all else (postage, media
         etc) is included.

         You have only to press the [r] key, and a registration
         facility is available from within Coeli itself. Here, you may
         set out your preferences for a personalized copy, enter
         comments and criticisms, and prepare/print out a registration
         form.

         Alternatively, you could simply fill out and then print
         REGISTER.FRM, which should be amongst the files you received
         with Coeli. If you cannot find this, a simple letter along
         with your registration will suffice. ( Don't forget to include
         any preferences you may have for personalization! Only the
         most unreasonable requests are refused...)

         We recognise that in these times many cannot afford even
         shareware prices, particularly students, state pensioners,
         the unemployed, and denizens of what it has become customary
         to label the Third World (including former Soviet & Eastern
         Block countries). If your circumstances fall into any of these
         areas, simply include a signed declaration to the effect, and
         enclose just HALF THE REGISTRATION FEE *. We will consider it
         encouragement, pure and simple, and be honoured to serve you.


         Or perhaps the following proposition may appeal:



         ************************************************************
         ***** N E W  $0 (ZERO DOLLAR!) R E G I S T R A T I O N *****
         ************************************************************

         The latest option we offer is a 'no fee' registration!

         Just post or E-mail us your registration form, filled out
         correctly from within the program, and we will customise your
         new copy of Coeli and remove most registration reminder screens.

         If you use the E-mail option, we will send your registered
         package to you as a MIME attachment within 24 hours, unless
         you stipulate otherwise in your message. Otherwise you will
         receive your registered copy via the *postal service.

         Be sure to retain a hard copy, or secure backup, of the form
         used in your 'no fee' registration. You will also need to
         include your correct postal address on the form, even if you
         go with the E-mail option, because 'snail mail' is the route
         by which we shall send the key which removes the registration
         reminder screens and their associated delays.

         By taking the 'no fee' alternative, you'll still be eligible
         for lifetime support, but your copy of Coeli will EXCLUDE most
         of the features which distinguish the full registered package
         from the evaluation version.

         The following full registration benefits are NOT included:

         1) Sky Quiz (TM)
         2) Capacity to load the entire first-level database of over
            9000 stars.
         3) Added comets.
         4) Minor planets (asteroids) - coming soon.
         5) The complete Messier catalogue in ImageIcons.
         6) Automatic eligibility for special offers and add-ons
         7) Unlimited *free* Coeli updates


         and any other bonuses which may be included at a future time
         (such as expanded databases and versions for alternative
         hardware configurations).

         So taking the full registration path is still very much to
         your advantage.

         Additionally, it is likely that the fee-registered version in
         forthcoming releases of Coeli will incorporate extensions to
         the features already present in shareware (evaluation) copies.
         The 'no fee' registration shall NOT entitle the registrant to
         these extensions.


         IN THE FOLLOWING TERMS, 'WE' DENOTES SWIMMING ELK SOFTWARE;
         'NO FEE' REGISTRATION MEANS PURCHASING A SPECIAL VERSION OF
         THE Coeli SOFTWARE PACKAGE FOR A PRICE OF ZERO DOLLARS U.S.


              TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR THE 'NO FEE' REGISTRATION
              --------------------------------------------------

         WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REFUSE ANY 'NO FEE' REGISTRATION
         SHOULD IT BE DEEMED BY US THAT THE REGISTRATION FORM HAS BEEN
         FILLED OUT INCOMPLETELY OR INCORRECTLY, OR NOT DONE SO FROM
         WITHIN THE Coeli PROGRAM WHILE THE PROGRAM IS RUNNING, OR IF
         WE DETECT WHAT WE MAY REGARD AS ABUSES OF THIS SPECIAL
         REGISTRATION OPTION.

         WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO INCORPORATE PROMOTIONAL MESSAGES ALONG
         WITH, OR AS PART OF, THE 'NO FEE' REGISTERED PROGRAM FILE.
         SUCH MESSAGES WILL BE UNOBTRUSIVE AND NOT IMPEDE USE OF THE
         PACKAGE.

         WE WILL NOT ACCEPT REPEATED 'NO FEE' REGISTRATIONS: A SINGLE
         INDIVIDUAL MAY REGISTER ONCE IN THIS FASHION, BUT ANY FUTURE
         VERSIONS OF THE Coeli SOFTWARE PACKAGE MUST BE ORDERED BY THE
         SAME INDIVIDUAL THROUGH NORMAL CHANNELS EITHER BY CHEQUE,
         CREDIT CARD, CURRENCY, OR MONEY-ORDER.

         FINALLY, SWIMMING ELK SOFTWARE RESERVES THE RIGHT TO
         DISCONTINUE THE 'NO FEE' REGISTRATION OPTION WITHOUT PRIOR
         NOTICE SHOULD IT BE CONSIDERED EXPEDIENT TO DO SO.

         *If not using E-mail, please include $5 U.S. to cover diskette
         costs and postage. We recommend purchasing International Reply
         Coupons (IRC) in USD or GBP for this. We regret that it is not
         possible for us to accept cheques or money orders for such a
         small sum.

         Before committing yourself to a 'no fee' registration, you are
         advised to consult the file NOFEE.TXT included with your Coeli
         shareware package and, if at all possible, check our homepage
         (see below) for any last-minute amendments to these terms and
         conditions.
