n. A bad visual-interface design that uses too many colors. (This term
derives, of course, from the bizarre day-glo colors found in canned fruit
salad.) Too often one sees similar effects from interface designers using
color window systems such as X ; there is a tendency to create displays that
are flashy and attention-getting but uncomfortable for long-term use.
