Title: Acronyms/Abbreviations Galore!
Post by: Andi on December 29, 2003, 10:23:05 PM

 :-\
Hey I hate to sound like the ultimate newbie, but i can't help it. I am searching around looking at posts and most of it makes alot of sense.  I can figure out some of the shortkut lettering but some of it leaves me perplexed.  If everybody out there would help me out with some of your favorite acronyms/abbreviations that relate to your rig or your favorite tapers subject, I would greatly appreciate it.  Just go for it and after this is done I will have my own Taperssection "Legend/Key" of sorts.....

I started a thread about this a while back. There didn't seem like much interest in it at the time.

saw you asking about source info in another thread. went back and found your initial post. here is a good starting point... while it is not perfect it's the best thing I've found out on the web as of yet. http://www.moelinks.com/random/source/

I believe that etree has put together a similiar list but I'm not sure where it is right now..
