LOG is a program which was created to handle the time logging and
billing requirements of a small consulting firm. LOG is now in
its third generation, having started as a humble program which
kept track of my billing back in 1987. Throughout the years
there have been a myriad of changes and additions to the basic
program. Some of the features of this new version of LOG are:
■ "Unlimited" (64,535) clients and/or projects are
supported.
■ Each client and/or project can be billed at a different
rate.
■ Expenses can be billed to any client.
■ Full-screen user interface with configurable colors.
■ Essential command line parameters are supported for
batch files.
■ DOS version now has a TSR version to enable logging at
any time.
■ User defined message will print on bills.
■ User may define an invoice number for each bill.

Licensing Agreement Licensing Agreement
_________________________________________________________________
LOG is a shareware product, that is to say, you are granted a
limited license to use it to determine if it will meet your
needs. While it is impossible to ensure your honesty, I urge you
to register LOG if you find that you use it for more than 1
month. Doing so will place you on our update mailing list
(updates within the same major version number are normally free
of charge, updates from one major version to another are offered
at a nominal charge), allow you access to Chris Laforet Software
to provide bug reports and/or suggestions, provide you with the
data structures of the program, and will remove the annoying
message and beep when you start LOG!!
While there is no way to compel you to register LOG, you really
will be hurting the shareware concept by not doing so. LOG is
one of the many fine programs which are developed by programmers
on a try-before-you-buy basis. If you do not pay for these
products (pirate them), you only prompt these software developers
to stop providing software on these terms. What will remain will
be commercial software packages which will be:
■ more expensive because of the increased marketing
costs.
■ inaccessible because you wouldn't be able to try them
first.
It is therefore my hope that you will register this and other
shareware products so that you will keep the Shareware ideal
alive and well.
Permission is granted for the transfer of the LOG package by any
means under the condition that the programs, this document, and
the Licensing document are together on the transfer medium. What
this means is that you are granted permission to transfer this
program as long as it is accompanied by this documention and the
Licensing document to electronic bulletin boards (BBS's),
commercial communications services, shareware libraries, CD-ROM
libraries, or to your friends. You are not permitted, however,
to make any changes to any of the documentation or programs
contained in the original LOG package. You are also not
permitted to charge money for the LOG program except for a

nominal charge to cover distribution materials (e.g. diskettes)
which may not exceed the sum of $5 (US funds). Should you have
acquired LOG through purchase from any source other than Chris
Laforet Software, then you are required to register your copy and
pay the specified registration fee.
