FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT SUPERCARD Version 03 4 September, 1998 ________________________________________________________________________________ This FAQ is maintained by Fourth World to help keep both new and potential new users as informed as possible and getting the most out of SuperCard. This is the third FAQ for SuperCard, culled from questions asked in UseNet newsgroups, the SuperCard SIGs on CompuServe and America Online, and the SuperCard Mailing List. If you have a question that is not addressed here, please send email to the address below. Your input will help make this an ever more valuable document. Answers assume the current version 3.0.4 unless otherwise indicated, although many answers will apply to earlier versions as well. Internet addresses in text appear between <>. NOTE: This is an interim update to the SuperCard FAQ to address some outdated material and for beta testing of the new SuperCard project shell it is available in. With the new SuperCard 3.5 expected to be released in just a few weeks, a new FAQ will follow shortly thereafter. If you have questions you think should be in the SuperCard .3.5 FAQ, please do send 'em along. ________________________________________________________________________________ We want your comments, suggestions, ideas, typo lists, whatever, for this FAQ. What else should it include? Your input can help ensure that an ever more valuable document is maintained. The FAQ will be updated periodically to include new questions as they come up.
