DESCRIPTION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gas Log is a simple little program designed to keep track of your car's Fuel 
consumption. This is important because it can help you detect when something 
may be malfunctioning or outta whack.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOW TO INSTALL
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just copy gaslog.exe to a directory of your choice on
your mobile, I suggest StorageProgram FilesGasLog.

Set up a shortcut if you like. That's it!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HOW TO USE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Main Screen...
Gas Log starts out with a list of all your previous gas purchases. They are 
sorted in reverse chronological order (with most recent on top). When you fill
up, click the "New Entry" soft button. This will take you to the edit screen.

Edit Screen...
This is fairly straightforward. You can use any date format you like, but the
default is YYYY.MM.DD. You only have to enter price per gallon, number of 
gallons, and your odometer reading. Gas Log will calculate number of miles since
your last fill-up and (more importantly) miles per gallon.

Push "OK" to save the changes or "Options", "Cancel" to revert.

IMPORTANT: in order for these calculations to be accurate, you MUST fill up
your tank every time. There's really no good reason not to fill up your tank,
so just do it!

If you enter purchases in the wrong order, don't worry, Gas Log will insert
it in the right place and recalculate your consumption.

That's it!
