The defs of these and -many- other arcane net-talk terms and abbreviations can be found in The Jargon File (proper name please) (AKA The New Hacker's Dictionary). A work-in-progress for over 15 years with a cast of thousands. ;) It's available in print and on line in many forms. Home page: http://www.jargon.org/ Googleable directly with the search modifier of "site:www.catb.org" EG to search for the def of 'LART' do a google search of: LART+site:www.catb.org It's beginnings are lost in the mists of time (some say at Stanford SAIL lab, others claim MIT) but for the last 14 years or so it's pretty much been the project of Eric S. Raymond (a major net persona in his own right, check out: http://www.faqs.org/docs/artu/ ). -- Dave Funk University of Iowa <dbfunk (at) engineering.uiowa.edu> College of Engineering 319/335-5751 FAX: 319/384-0549 1256 Seamans Center Sys_admin/Postmaster/cell_admin Iowa City, IA 52242-1527 #include <std_disclaimer.h> Better is not better, 'standard' is better.
