READ THIS PAGE FIRST! First compiled when I became frustrated while reading magazine articles, help wanted ads and equipment for sale brochures....all pertaining to computers....where the following Abbreviations and Acronyms were used and their meanings were either not known to me or were not immediately available. I have actually seen (or have been told about) these combinations of letters used at one time or another in magazines, newspapers, handbooks, etc. They apply to personal computers, multimedia, communications, programming, networking, etc......you name it. This glossary can never be considered complete so look over the entries and let me have your feedback. If you find errors or if you can suggest additions, they will be most welcome (See NOTE 1). If you can help, you have my thanks in advance. Keep BABEL on your hard drive or floppy disk or print it and keep it on your desk (See NOTE 2). Either way, you will have an outstanding reference, immediately available. BABEL is revised three times a year, in January, May and September so as to keep you up-to-date. See APPENDIX A for methods that may be used to download BABEL in either TEXT, HTML or PALM Format.
Letter groups followed with " * " were used before 1965. At some of these, historical information is noted. For brief interpretations of "smiley faces" and other informal expressions used in electronic mail messages, see APPENDIX B. For a partial list of Country Domain Names, see APPENDIX C. BABEL is not in the public domain. It is free for personal use. When you download it, you agree to the following: You will only retain BABEL in its entirety and not make ANY modifications, to include: This opening page, copyright information, version notices and format.
