Chapter 1 Welcome
The emphasis throughout AutoSketch is on speed, power, and ease of use.
Features appear when you need them but are kept out of the way when you
don’t. If you’re already a Windows NT 4.0, Windows 98, Windows ME,
Windows 2000, or Windows XP user, you’ll find the menu system and much
of the screen familiar. If you’re new to Windows, you’ll find it an easy place
to work. If you use a Microsoft Office product, you’ll notice that many tasks
can be completed in a similar manner in AutoSketch.
