Re: abbreviations for non-native english speakers



    Hey Joerg,

fwiw, I found a killer apt called 'wtf'. I'll let you do the math on what 
that means, but it is a great way to know what 'imnsho' means. Also, 
apt-cache search showed me that jargon is still available and will do the 
same job. It's small and useful. Just used it today when I seen, 'smop' 
refered to in an earlier post this AM :)

hth, ttfn and 73 :)
