General Information
Global Abbreviations 1.5 has been vigorously tested for three months by
more than 20 testers in more than 10 countries. As of this writing, there
are ZERO known bugs.
The original zip file was scanned with both PC Tools 2.0 virus scanner
and the McAffee virus scanner (not the most recent version).
Global Abbreviations is designed to run on Windows 3.1. While some
testers have used it on "compatible" environments such as OS/2 2.1 and
WFWG 3.11, I have not tested it enough to say that it works completely
on any system other than Windows 3.1
Global Abbreviations does NOT make any changes to any files on the
user's system, either during installation or execution. The installation
program will replace older versions of the same VBX or DLL files if
the information obtained via ver.dll indicates they are older. All VBX and
DLL files contained in this package are unmodified copies of the most
recent versions available from Microsoft or Crescent Software at the
time the package was put together.
Global Abbreviations has an uninstall feature to help the user remove
the program from their system. The uninstaller will remove files that
it safely can, and offer to print a list of those it cannot (eg. VBX and
DLL files which may be required by other programs).
The registration theory used in Global Abbreviations is that of "increasing
nags." The program never becomes crippled, but after the 45 day trial
period- the startup nag screen will pause for longer and longer periods.
The operating philosophy is that most people are honest and will eventually
register. The increasing delay in the nag is intended to motivate the
honest user to finally get around to spending the few minutes required
to send in their registration. I hope that this does not offend anybody
and is accepted at face value as a legitimate motivational mechanism.
