****************************************************************************
The Abuser beta version 0.7b is a 'handy' little insult generator. When its
run it places an icon in your Win 95 or NT 4.0 system tray that can be clicked
for instant insult production! Right click the icon for cool options...

New to v0.7b:
@ Eliminated some duplication in the insult generation and made it a little 
  faster.

New to v0.6:
@ You can edit the word lists that the Abuser uses to generate insults!!
  (Be careful about adding in carriage returns and such... if you screw things
  up there's no way to restore the originals, yet...)

New to v0.5:
@ Can now save your insult archive to a text file.
@ Implemented insult options fully
@ Can now choose the number of insults generated when the generate button
  is clicked

Coming in v0.8 (hopefully):
@ Random insulting Win95 Start/Shutdown screen option
@ More insulting words
@ Faster insult 'engine'
@ Whatever else we feel like throwing in! Feel free to email me your
  suggestions.

Bugs that we'll fix soon:
@ The program freaks if you save your archive to a text file in a directory
  other than the default and then try to generate more insults. This can be
  upsetting. For now just close and restart the program...
@ The insult generation routines are painfully slow if for some strange 
  reason you feel the need to generate a ton of insults. Since I often feel
  this need it will be made faster!
