/moof/ [Macintosh users] 1. n. The call of a semi-legendary creature,
|
|
|
|
|
properly called the dogcow. (Some previous versions of this entry claimed,
|
|
|
|
|
incorrectly, that Moof was the name of the creature. ) 2. adj. Used to flag
|
|
|
|
|
software that's a hack, something untested and on the edge. On one Apple
|
|
|
|
|
CD-ROM, certain folders such as Tools Apps (Moof!) and Development Platforms
|
|
|
|
|
(Moof!) , are so marked to indicate that they contain software not fully
|
|
|
|
|
tested or sanctioned by the powers that be. When you open these folders you
|
|
|
|
|
cross the boundary into hackerland. 3. v. On the Microsoft Network, the term
|
|
|
|
|
moof has gained popularity as a verb meaning to be suddenly disconnected by
|
|
|
|
|
the system. One might say I got moofed.
