Otherwise it puts up the "Please register" dialog box every other keystroke. The demo is for all intents and purposes, non-functional because of this annoyance. If you don't want to register without trying it first, the best choice is to find a different terminal program. FWIW, I never got it to work right. It seemed very flakey, never responding to the same comamnd the same way twice, but with the sharware dialogs popping up every other keystroke, I couldn't tell what I was doing, anyway. My recommendation would be to avoid this app. -Charlie
