MeisterMed applications are not stand-alone programs. They are documents or e-books written for viewing in the iSilo document reader. The term “document,” however, fails to adequately represent the power and functionality of a complex and thoroughly hyperlinked reference. “Application” is a general term that means “software that executes a specific task” and it applies well to MeisterMed’s e-books. Purists may disagree. In common parlance, many people refer to anything that installs onto a computer as a program.
