====== 4. GENERAL NOTES ================================================


*  Some applications are programmed in non-standard ways, which limits
   their compatibility with other software, including Genius MouseMate98.To avoid
   headaches, some special Genius MouseMate98 functions have been disabled when
   using applications known to cause problems.

*  The Genius MouseMate98 is primarily a Windows product. It cannot provide the
   Pan function in DOS due to the limitations of DOS.  However, if you 
   are running DOS programs in a Windows environment you can still use
   many of the special features as long as your DOS sessions are
   windowed(i.e. not full screen).

*  The Button Find feature does not always work. This is due to the use
   of non-standard windows in some applications and is common to other
   implementations of this feature.
