WYSIWYG
/wiz'ee?wig/, /wiss?ee?wig/, adj.
[Traced to Flip Wilson's ?Geraldine? character c.1970] Describes a user
interface under which ?What You See Is What You Get?, as opposed to one
that uses more-or-less obscure commands that do not result in immediate
visual feedback. True WYSIWYG in environments supporting multiple fonts or
graphics is a rarely-attained ideal; there are variants of this term to
express real-world manifestations including WYSIAWYG (What You See Is
Almost What You Get) and WYSIMOLWYG (What You See Is More or Less What You
Get). All these can be mildly derogatory, as they are often used to refer
to dumbed-down {user-friendly} interfaces targeted at non-programmers; a
hacker has no fear of obscure commands (compare {WYSIAYG}). On the other
hand, {EMACS} was one of the very first WYSIWYG editors, replacing
(actually, at first overlaying) the extremely obscure, command-based
{TECO}. See also {WIMP environment}. [Oddly enough, WYSIWYG made it into
the 1986 supplement to the OED, in lower case yet. ?ESR]
