		----- PIRegistry v0.4ß by Benjamin Ortega -----

This is a little program I wrote in an afternoon, but I thought it was pretty 
cool, so here it is. It asks a user a list of questions, and then other users 
can access that user's responses. The code isn't particularly well-written, 
but give me a break, this is my first attempt at a viable BASIC door, let 
alone a MaxsBBS door :) 

Good things:
- helps users get to know each other and gives your BBS a more friendly 
feel
- is the only door of it's type to work with MaxsBBS (to the best of my 
knowledge, anyway)
- gives me the ability tell tell people I'm a coder (barely!)

Bad things:
- has some odd bugs:
	- Because of the way I did the file I/O routines, the registry will look 
funny if the user uses a " in their Registry. This is especially bad for the 
"Height:" field. I put in a few reminders :)
	- Every time a data file is written, the progam creates an icon for it! 
Can anyone fix this?
- since I'm not much of a programmer, the program isn't really all that 
professional-looking. Does the job though.

Future plans:
- Sysop-definable questions (if not, I'll just throw in the source code)
- Improved file I/O to get rid of the " bug.
- Nicer example menu
- More well-written code in general

Registration:
It's E-mailware. If you put this online, send me an me an E-mail and I can 
send you a version with your BBS name in the opening text and the list of 
questions you want to appear in the program. Either that or I can just send 
you the source and you can do whatever the hell you want with it (Just 
thought I'd hold something out so you'd have to cantact me :)
Failing that, send me your Amiga BASIC manual and all your old college 
BASIC (and/or C or Pascal) books if you ain't using them. It's for a good 
cause!

Anyway, have fun with it, and there's further info in the docs in the archive. 
I plan to update this; I'll post them on Aminet (look ma, I'm on a CD!), 
through my BBS (see below), and possibly on the MaxsBBS mailing list.
