Text and background colors are so similar that the text is unreadable.	There isn't enough contrast between text and background.	Try adjusting the contrast and brightness on your monitor. If that doesn't improve the contrast, you can restore the original Control Panel settings for text and background by pressing Option-Control-Reset and then pressing 2. If there still isn't enough contrast, try setting the display type in the Control Panel Program to Color even if you're using a monochrome monitor.

Little apples and check marks appear in a line of uppercase, inverse text.	The apples and check marks are called MouseText. MouseText characters replaced a redundant set of characters in earlier models of the Apple II. Older applications using that redundant character set will now display MouseText characters in place of uppercase, inverse text.	The MouseText characters don't affect the way an Application works, so if they don't bother you, go Ahead and use the application. If they do bother you, ask your authorized Apple dealer or the developer of the application if there is an upgraded version of the application.
There isn't enough contrast between colors on the display.	The application was designed for earlier models of the Apple II. The Apple IIGS generates slightly different colors.	Try a different setting for display type in the Control Panel Program. The display type doesn't have to match the kind of monitor you have.
