<p>Am brand new to mining, and wanted to download an OSX miner just to experience (fully realizing that it would not be profitable). With cgminer connected to a mining pool, I see the following interface...

<p>... Can someone help me understand what each of the indicators mean (A, R, HW, WU, ST, SS, NB, LW, GF, RF)?</p>
