Re: Licensing and registration feedback

Hi all,

> >> What sort of format would be best?  Plain text?  RTF?  DVI?  PDF?  HTML?

I think HTML is the way to go, or maybe RTF.  PDF really annoys me. Recently I
had to uninstall Acrobat Reader 4 and then install Acrobat Reader 3 since the
PDF file had a password/encryption method that was only supported by version
3. (this was on my windows machine though). I also think that Acrobat is hard
to read on the screen. Maybe plain text is the way to go so nobody can
complain.

Actually I don't mind DOC files myself, and think they're quite handy for
those who use Word, though I can see the problem that some users would have
