Version 10.0 will be distributed with a printed manual.  This is one
of the reasons it will not be shareware.  Another reason is that Scott
Watson, the author, wants access to the retail channel.

In the GEnie discussions, Mr. Watson broke his long-standing silence 
on the subject of how many people actually pay for Red Ryder.  His guess
is that 30% of regular users have paid, 60% are still putting it off, and
10% are deadbeats.  This may be another reason.

The proposed US$20 is really a nominal charge.  Freesoft has been charging
$10 for the handling involved in mailing out a disk, and good manuals are
not cheap to produce.  I'm a registered user and don't feel betrayed, since
Freesoft has always reserved the right to recoup distribution expenses on 
upgrades.
