    That's all I can think of for now, but for future reference, if it's not in the dictionary, you can find a definition for practically anything with google. I always just type the word or acronym I'm looking for followed by the word 'definition' and there ya go.

    All these abbreviations can be sumarised as "RTFM".
    That's 'read the - manual'!

    I sometimes wonder how many could understand these abbreviations. I use them once in a while, but only the ones that are common.

    I'm the same way! I have a degree in English, so I just can't bring myself to abbreviate anything. It doesn't bother me when other people do it, but I just can't.
