Hi Matt

This is really pathetic! My abbrev file is quite personal, so it shall be
useless to you.

As for backup, I strongly recommend you to use dropbox + svn/git.
# dropbox is a wonderful online storage: support versioning, 2 GB free
capacity, high liability and easy to use.
              https://www.dropbox.com/
# git/svn: I used to deploy a local version control server, since public
server is not so reliable.
              Public server like http://opensvn.csie.org, is not stable.
              Google code/git hub force me to share my privacy with the
public.

Regards,
Denny
