Description:

World Flag Clock will allow you to display a clock with your choice of many different flags
on your desktop. You may switch flags anytime. The clock is designed to stay on top of any
application that you may have running, so it will always be seen. You may still use other
applications while World Flag Clock is running. The program will also allow users to
pre-set their favorite flag to automatically load upon program execution using the
"Auto Execute" command. World Flag clock has full sound capabilities for systems with
compatible sound boards. The clock can be set to chime hourly using many different sound
choices. The clock has an alarm capability for user reminders.

Distribution:

- World Flag Clock is distributed as Shareware. The Author maintains all rights to the
program in its entirety. 

- World Flag Clock may be distributed freely as long as the integrity of Shareware is maintained.

- In the tradition of Shareware, the author grants a 30 day trial period to the user to
decide whether they want to keep the program. If so, a $15 donation is required. If not,
then before the 30 days is up, you must delete the program from your system.


Important Notice:

Because of the file structure of World Flag Clock, users should take caution when changing
and copying the files to a new directory from the original installation directory. Some 
files are created using the original directory. Validated users may lose their validation 
information. Also, Auto execution of preferred teams may be lost. Neither is a major
catastrophy. Validation and Auto-execution can easily be re-established in the new directory.
Validated users should write down their validation number in case they change directories.



Disclaimer:

World Flag Clock has no expressed or implied warranty. The user accepts full responsibility
for this program by loading it on their computer. At no time is the author responsible for
any hardware or software malfunctions caused by Football Clock. Though the author knows of
no such problems from this software, he is not liable if any should occur.


NOTE:
Currently there are hundreds of national flags that are represented in the world. This
program could not possibly include each and every flag. The program currently holds
32 flags. The author considered the 32 flags which he viewed as being the most
popular by individuals who would have access to this program. The author did not
intend to 'slight' any nation. However, he could only choose a maximum of 32 flags.
Please do not take offense if a particular national flag is excluded from this
program. If you feel that a national flag that is not included in this program which
would be very popular (by the amount of computer users of that nationality) then
let the author know. If the author agrees, then in a future release that national
flag shall be added to the list.
