║ A BETTER way of handling errors found by PC-Proof is by ║
║ loading your word processor and PC-Proof into a program ║
║ manager like MS-Windows. When PC-Proof finds an error, ║
║ you switch to your word processor to make the correction.║

║1. Save your document in your word processor and quit. ║
║2. Start PC-Proof and press F1 to interactively proofread. ║
║3. Provide the filename of your document. ║
