FW: What the heck is a EKTA?

["Paul Meyers" <paulm@viewsoft.com>]

As I found out when I went to my local dealership, the EKTA is a Windows
application that has a graphical display of all the parts of various Audi
models. It lets you look at an exploded view of subassemblies and identify
the part number of a particular part. I hope that helps.

I'm starting to think this EKTA (or eTKa) is some secret club,
even the explanations are cryptic.  John, it looks like you spent
a bit too much time in your CEO-speak classes.  What the hell does
"embraces the factory records" mean?

Teile is German for parts, so at least it looks like a parts catalog.  Also,
given the title presented by John here, ETKA seems more correct than EKTA.

Please, how about a full description of the damn thing?  After a couple
dozen posts with ETKA in the title, I'll wager most people like me are
still in the dark on it.  And is this truly freeware, or a bootleg copy?
Is it in German or English?
