 *
 *  If you're reading this then congratulations! You've just successfully
 *  downloaded QuickBASIC version 4.5! This file will tell you some
 *  important things about this version of QuickBASIC, including legal issues
 *  and where you can get support.
 *
 *  DISCLAIMER
 *  ----------
 *  This package has been put together by members of the QBasic online
 *  community to be as close to the original QB45 package as possible.
 *  However, as of the 6th of February 2004, Microsoft's (the original
 *  creator of QuickBASIC) stance on the distrobution of QuickBASIC is
 *  unknown. Several members of the community have tried to contact MS
 *  about this but to no avail. However unlikely it may be that Microsoft
 *  would one day start prosecuting people who have downloaded a version
 *  of QuickBASIC, because their stance is unknown you should be aware
 *  that there is the possibility. For more information on this issue,
 *  please visit the following link:
 *
 *  http://forum.qbasicnews.com/viewtopic.php?t=5060
 *
 *  INSTALLATION
 *  ------------
 *  As of the 21st of July, 2004, this archive comes "pre-installed". This
 *  is because many people report that they cannot run the SETUP.EXE program
 *  successfully, even with the SETUP.BAT batch file (typically these users
 *  are running Windows XP). So no installation is required - simply unzip
 *  to wherever you want QuickBASIC to go. You may find you need to configure
 *  paths though - the "Set Paths" command is under the "Options" menu.
 *
 *
 *  COMMUNITY
 *  ---------
 *  Contrary to popular belief, there is a thriving, active QBasic
 *  community on the web, discussing all aspects of Q and Quick BASIC
 *  and offering support to whoever asks. You can find a list of
 *  active QuickBASIC sites at the following address:
 *
 *  http://qbnz.com/active.html

 *  A note about www.qbasic.com: This site is no longer updated anymore,
 *  and has not been updated for some time. However at the above qbnz address
 *  you can find many active QuickBASIC sites with all the latest downloads,
 *  news and advances in QuickBASIC.
