2000-10-04 Aaron Weber <aaron@helixcode.com>
* C/usage-contact.sgml: Spellcheck. Fixed some wording, and
responded to clahey's suggestions-- notably, commented out the
"add to master list" category feature.
* C/usage-calendar.sgml: Spellcheck. Fixed wording, event overlap
description.
* C/evolution-guide.sgml: Spellcheck. Commented out Notes
entities.
* C/usage-notes.sgml: Spellchecked, then decided to comment out
this file/chapter and all references to it, since it's unlikely to
be implemented any time soon.
* C/config-setupassist.sgml: Spellcheck. Other minor updates. May
need more work in the near future.
* C/usage-sync.sgml: Now it's really short. And spelled correctly.
2000-10-03 Aaron Weber <aaron@helixcode.com>
* C/config-prefs.sgml: Mostly spelling. Still needs major
alteration.
* C/menuref.sgml: s/Appintment/Appointment, fixed small errors,
ran spellcheck. Still needs lots of work, since many menus have
changed.
* C/apx-gloss.sgml: Added Virus, Protocol, fixed vFolder,
spellchecked.
