this program, I had been up for 38 hours...
6. BUGS
~~~~~~~
Finger has been run with enforcer and mungwall. It will be run with devmon
as soon as I can find it again :). In other words, I haven't found any
bugs, so this part in the docs is totally useless! :)
7. SHAREWARE FEE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As of version 1.03, Finger is ShareWare. I am not asking for a huge
amount of money so I hope I will get some response. The fee is only $5 to
$10 (USD), or whatever that happens to make at the moment you're reading
this, in german marks (DM). If you're from Finland a sum of 20 FIM to 50
FIM is great (Yeah, so what if I changed the $10 to $12 ? You Finnish guys
don't have to pay so much for postage :)
8. BETATESTERS
