Hi..
Lucas is correct. WYSIWYG is more of a computer term than a Maximum-Football term. It stems from the early days of Windows and word processor applications. In DOS apps, you were never really sure what it would print out like, but when Word and WordPerfect moved to Windows, you were able to see exactly what would be printed to the printer, hence, What You See, Is What You Get (WYSIWYG Pronounced Wizeewig).
How that relates to Maximum-Football's PDS is similar (only without the DOS part). With PDS1, you were outside the game. Everything was 2D, players were icons, and you had a small section of field to work with.
With PDS2 (available in builds 1.3.84 and higher) you have full 3D, the players you move around, are the players on the field. And you have the full length of field to work with. Instant practice lets you make a tiny change, then test it out without having to load anything.
