/n[y]ooli:n/ , n. 1. [techspeak, primarily Unix] The ASCII LF character
|
|
|
|
(0001010), used under Unix as a text line terminator. Though the term
|
|
|
|
newline appears in ASCII standards, it never caught on in the general
|
|
|
|
computing world before Unix. 2. More generally, any magic character,
|
|
|
|
character sequence, or operation (like Pascal's writeln procedure) required
|
|
|
|
to terminate a text record or separate lines. See crlf.
