Hey Geoffrey!

This is an old hack written by me ;-)

The fact is that it works only in the german phone area because it
needs certain costs for one unit (time-interval), i.e. each unit
costs here 0.23 DM and has a certain length which differs depending
the actual time.

With the line 'TARIFZONEN: x y' you set set length of these time intervals
for two different day times.

But there was never a question from U.S. for patching the prog for U.S. use
too.

Sorry,
        Michael
