Pardon's main window is where most of your actions will be performed. This window is used to search dictionaries and to use the Internal browser. It offers quick access to all other features of the program.
Most functions can be accessed by using the menu line on the top. The most used functions are also available on the Welcome Screen. The Welcome Screen is the area between the menu line at the top, and the status bar at the bottom. After you have used Pardon a few times, you'll find that this combination is both intuitive and practical.
There are three different views of the main window; main screen, dictionary and Internet. You can switch between these by using the tabs at the top. Pardon will automatically switch views when you load and close dictionaries.
To find out how to use specific features, consult the other parts of this help-file describing how to use the individual items.
