INTRODUCTION
============

Biorhythms is a fully resizeable biorhythm calculator for Win98. Biorhythm charts can be used to predict how you (or anybody else!) will be feeling on any date in the past, present or future. To make a chart for somebody, all you need to know is their date of birth. The program will even interpret the charts for you, displaying a brief message to tell you what the chart means in real terms.

There is also a comparison feature, which allows you to compare how similar two people will be feeling on a required date.

The chart colours are fully customizable to fit your own personal preferences, and charts can be printed or saved as BMP files.

Includes a birthday database, which you can use to store the details of up to 50 friends and relatives. Allows you to display somebody's chart by simply selecting their name, instead of struggling to remember the exact date of their birthday!

Full instructions are included in the file MANUAL.TXT - please store this somewhere safe in case you need to refer to it!
