About This User Guide

 

This User Guide provides the information 
you need to use SHOW effectively. It will 
help you learn the application and serve as 
a reference as you attempt more 
sophisticated procedures.

This User Guide assumes you are already 
familiar with basic Windows or 
Macintosh concepts—menus, dialogs, 
and mouse operations such as 
clicking-and-dragging. If you need more 
information on these subjects, or on the 
Windows Desktop, or Macintosh Finder, 
please refer to the Microsoft Windows 
User’s Guide or the Macintosh User’s 
Manual, respectively.

 

Conventions

 

This user guide is for both Windows and 
Macintosh users. By convention, 
Macintosh commands precede Windows 
commands in the text. For example, 
Command/Ctrl+I is equivalent to the 
Macintosh Command-I and the Windows 
Ctrl+I. For simplicity, the term folder 
refers to directories as well as folders. The 
SHOW interface for both platforms is 
identical, unless otherwise specified.
