available anywhere.

The "PRO" form offers the same features as the Standard version but differs
from the Standard version in one important way. The "PRO" version allows
you to export the detailed explanations to a file. This feature allows
Technical Professionals to pass the information on to others - something
not permitted by the terms of the standard version. The software license
reflects this ability as well.
